Non-Intentionally Added Substances (NIAS) Screening for Food Contact Materials
Non-Intentionally Added Substances (NIAS) refer to chemicals that may be present in food contact materials (FCMs) due to manufacturing processes, environmental exposure, or degradation. Our NIAS Screening services are designed to identify and evaluate these substances, ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements and protecting consumer health.
Importance of NIAS Screening
NIAS screening is critical for the food packaging industry for several reasons:
- Consumer Safety: Ensures that packaging materials do not contain harmful substances that could migrate into food.
- Regulatory Compliance: Meets stringent regulatory standards that require comprehensive safety assessments of FCMs.
- Quality Assurance: Enhances product integrity by identifying and mitigating potential contaminants before they reach consumers.
