ISO 32712 Specific Migration Testing in Infant Food Packaging
The testing of specific migration from packaging materials into infant food is crucial to ensure that the products are safe for consumption. This service focuses on compliance with ISO 32712, a standard specifically designed to assess the specific migration of certain substances from contact material into foodstuffs intended for infants and young children.
The primary goal is to protect vulnerable populations by minimizing exposure to potentially harmful chemicals that could migrate from packaging materials. This service involves rigorous analytical techniques aimed at detecting trace amounts of these substances, ensuring they are below the regulatory limits set forth in ISO 32712. The test ensures that all products comply with international standards and meet consumer safety expectations.
For this testing, we use advanced analytical instruments capable of accurately measuring minute quantities of specific chemicals. This precision is vital given the stringent requirements imposed by ISO 32712. The process begins with selecting appropriate samples from various types of infant food packaging, including plastics, metals, and paper-based materials.
Once the samples are prepared, they undergo a series of extraction steps followed by analysis using techniques such as High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) or Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS). These methods allow us to identify and quantify specific substances that may migrate into food during storage or consumption.
The results are then compared against the specified limits outlined in ISO 32712. Compliance with these limits is essential for ensuring the safety of infant foods, preventing any adverse health effects on young consumers. By adhering strictly to this international standard, we provide peace of mind to manufacturers and regulatory bodies alike.
Our team of experts ensures that every aspect of the testing process adheres rigorously to ISO 32712 requirements. From sample preparation through final analysis, each step is meticulously documented and verified to guarantee accurate results. This commitment to quality and precision sets our service apart in delivering reliable data that can be trusted by all stakeholders involved.
Understanding the importance of this testing for infant food packaging, our laboratory offers comprehensive support throughout the entire process—from initial consultation through final report generation. Our experienced staff will work closely with you to understand your specific needs and tailor our services accordingly. This collaborative approach ensures that we deliver results that meet not only legal requirements but also exceed expectations in terms of product safety.
