The declaration of conformity is the summarised result of internal and external testing for compliance with legal requirements for food contact materials. It confirms that a product meets all applicable legal requirements and is therefore marketable. Certain materials are subject to their own regulations with specific requirements - including plastics (including recycled ones), ceramics and metals.
It does not matter whether it concerns a final product, a product component, or packaging – all elements that come into contact with food must meet the relevant requirements.
Attention to detail – especially with complex products
Many materials are not immediately recognizable:
- Non-stick coatings often contain plastic components
- Enamelled products are legally classified as ceramics
- Interior coatings of food cans may contain epoxy derivatives
