ISO 27562 Specific Migration of Bisphenol S in Cans and Bottles

ISO 27562 Specific Migration of Bisphenol S in Cans and Bottles

ISO 27562 Specific Migration of Bisphenol S in Cans and Bottles

The specific migration of bisphenol S (Bisphenol S, or BPS) from packaging materials into food and beverage products is a critical concern for consumer safety. ISO 27562 provides the framework to ensure that any migration does not exceed regulated limits set by relevant authorities.

Our laboratory specializes in testing specific migration of Bisphenol S from contact materials used in cans and bottles, ensuring compliance with international standards such as ISO 27562. This service is particularly important for manufacturers dealing with canned goods or bottled beverages, as it directly impacts consumer safety and product compliance.

The testing process involves the extraction of BPS from packaging materials into a solution that simulates real-world conditions. The extracted BPS is then analyzed using advanced analytical techniques to determine its concentration within specified limits. Compliance with these limits ensures that the packaged products do not pose health risks to consumers.

Our experienced team of scientists and engineers ensure that each test adheres strictly to ISO 27562 guidelines, providing accurate results that can be relied upon for regulatory compliance. The importance of this testing cannot be overstated; it is a cornerstone in ensuring public safety and maintaining trust in the food and beverage industry.

In addition to providing comprehensive testing services, we also offer expert advice on packaging materials selection and design to help our clients minimize risk during product development. Our aim is to support you in meeting regulatory requirements while enhancing your product's safety profile.

The following tables outline the key aspects of ISO 27562:

Table 1: Summary of ISO 27562 Compliance Criteria
Criterion Description
Specific Migration Limits The maximum concentration allowed for BPS in food and beverage containers.
Extraction Conditions The conditions under which the packaging is exposed to simulate real-world use.
Analytical Methods The techniques used to measure BPS concentrations in extracted solutions.

Simulated Use Test (SUT) A method to simulate the conditions under which packaging is used.
HPLC with Fluorescence Detection An analytical technique for measuring BPS concentrations in extracted solutions.

The following list highlights the environmental and sustainability contributions of our work:

  • Ensures compliance with international standards, reducing potential health risks to consumers.
  • Aids manufacturers in selecting safer packaging materials for their products.
  • Supports sustainable practices by helping companies avoid non-compliant materials that could lead to product recalls or legal issues.

We understand the importance of this service and take pride in providing accurate, reliable results. Our team is dedicated to ensuring your compliance with ISO 27562 while contributing positively to environmental sustainability.

Why It Matters

The specific migration of Bisphenol S from packaging materials into food and beverages can have serious health implications. BPS is a synthetic compound that mimics the properties of estrogen, which can disrupt hormonal balance in humans if consumed in excessive amounts over extended periods.

In cans and bottles, BPS can migrate into the contents due to prolonged contact between the material and the product. This migration becomes particularly concerning when dealing with acidic or carbonated beverages, as these conditions enhance the dissolution of BPS from the packaging.

The health risks associated with BPS exposure include potential effects on reproductive systems, metabolic function, and increased risk for certain diseases. These concerns have led to stricter regulations on the specific migration of BPS in contact materials used in food and beverage packaging.

Compliance with ISO 27562 is not just about meeting legal requirements; it is also a commitment to public health and safety. By ensuring that Bisphenol S levels do not exceed regulated limits, we contribute to creating safer products for consumers worldwide.

Applied Standards

The ISO 27562 standard provides the framework for testing specific migration of Bisphenol S from packaging materials into food and beverages. This standard is essential for ensuring that any migration does not exceed regulated limits set by relevant authorities.

Table 1: Summary of ISO 27562 Compliance Criteria
Criterion Description
Specific Migration Limits The maximum concentration allowed for BPS in food and beverage containers.
Extraction Conditions The conditions under which the packaging is exposed to simulate real-world use.
Analytical Methods The techniques used to measure BPS concentrations in extracted solutions.

Our laboratory adheres strictly to these guidelines, ensuring that each test conducted meets the highest standards of accuracy and reliability. This commitment is crucial for maintaining public trust and ensuring compliance with international regulations.

Environmental and Sustainability Contributions

  • Ensures compliance with international standards, reducing potential health risks to consumers.
  • Aids manufacturers in selecting safer packaging materials for their products.
  • Supports sustainable practices by helping companies avoid non-compliant materials that could lead to product recalls or legal issues.

The work we do not only ensures public safety but also promotes responsible business practices. By providing accurate and reliable testing results, we contribute positively to the environment and society as a whole.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is ISO 27562?
ISO 27562 is an international standard that specifies the procedure for determining the specific migration of bisphenol S from contact materials used in food and beverage packaging.
Why is this testing important?
This testing ensures that any Bisphenol S migrating into food and beverages does not exceed regulated limits, thereby protecting public health and safety.
What are the specific migration limits for BPS?
The specific migration limits for BPS vary depending on the type of packaging material and the food or beverage it contains. These limits are stipulated in ISO 27562.
How do you simulate real-world conditions during testing?
During testing, we expose packaging materials to simulated use conditions that replicate the actual environment they will be exposed to in storage and distribution.
What analytical techniques are used for measuring BPS concentrations?
We use HPLC with fluorescence detection, a highly sensitive method that allows us to measure BPS concentrations accurately in extracted solutions.
How often should packaging materials be tested for BPS migration?
Testing frequency depends on the product and its lifecycle. Typically, testing is conducted during initial development stages, as part of regular quality checks, and before market release.
Can you provide certification for compliance with ISO 27562?
Yes, upon completion of testing, we can issue a certificate confirming that the packaging materials comply with the specific migration limits set by ISO 27562.
What is the role of our laboratory in ensuring consumer safety?
Our laboratory plays a crucial role by providing accurate, reliable testing results that help manufacturers ensure their products meet regulatory requirements and are safe for consumption.
