Mineral Oil Analysis in Recycled Fibre Food Packaging
Verify MOSH and MOAH compliance in recycled fibre packaging using accredited HPLC-GC-FID testing, validated functional barriers, and complete declarations of compliance.
Declaration of Compliance Audit
Document Verification
Regulatory review processes in food contact supply chains validate that paperboard and flexible packaging documentation meets European legal standards for substance migration. Converting operations and paper mills issue analytical proof that raw material formulations comply with relevant safety frameworks. A declaration of compliance audit checks the technical accuracy of migration test results and toxicological evaluations submitted across the supply chain.
Document reviews verify that listed chemical substances stay within specific migration limits under defined time and temperature conditions. Failure to produce valid supporting documentation invalidates food contact clearance even when physical migration testing passes.
Chain Traceability
Supply chain audits trace chemical inputs from resin or pulp production through coating and converting stages. Auditors review bills of materials alongside supplier declarations to confirm that non-intentionally added substances receive complete toxicological assessment. Conducting a declaration of compliance audit requires verifying that chemical identity numbers match lab screening reports, ensuring no unlisted additives enter the production stream.
Discrepancies between converter manufacturing formulations and paper mill certifications reveal gaps in chemical safety governance. Detailed batch tracking records connect physical production lots directly to corresponding compliance statements.
Nonconformity Exposure
Inadequate analytical testing or outdated regulatory references trigger regulatory sanctions. Omissions in compliance documentation expose packaging converters to immediate product recalls. A declaration of compliance audit establishes legal accountability across paper packaging supply networks.
