The whitepaper on “Global Food Contact Compliance”, proposed by Dr. Sarah Peter, provides an introduction to how to comply with food contact regulations in different regions, with a focus on regulation for plastic food contact materials.

The whitepaper discusses Food Contact Compliance in the European Union (EU), with a main focus on European Regulation, Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP), Plastic Food Contact Materials, as well as requirements of EU. It also describes how to achieve food contact compliance.
The paper also reflects the food contact compliance in the US, China and Switzerland. The focus of the paper is to provide the latest information on regulatory requirements in key markets including, EU and USA. It highlights how regulations vary from region to region and what is required for compliance.
