FOOD SAFETY

One of the basic essentials for the food industry packaging is the food safety. Basically, we must ensure to consume food without risks for our health. However, lots of materials used in the food industry do not comply this requirement. Our products, do not only fulfill with the most demanding certificates within the food safety standards. We test them in independent laboratories in order to guarantee the maximum quality.

PACKAGING FREE FROM TOXIC ELEMENTS, MOSH AND MOAH

What are the MOSH and MOAH?
They are chemical substances derived from oil. Both mineral oil saturated hydrocarbons (MOSH) and mineral oil aromatic hydrocarbons (MOAH) are substances that in long term, could be a major health threat. These elements are present in some food contact materials (FCM) used for packaging and could be transferred to the food.
Functional barrier
in our packaging
Our recycled plastic packaging count with a basic element called FUNCTIONAL BARRIER. It consists of an obstacle to harmful substances preventing them to reach the food, in order to offer the maximum guarantee to the end user.
