from CIRS by

China,FCM,Market Access,Food,Contact,Substance

Background:

With the rapid development of the food industry and food supply globalization, food contact materials (FCMs) have attracted increasing attention since they could significantly affect food safety. In China, the regulatory system and supervision on FCMs have been improved gradually, lowering the risks and ensuring the safety of the consumers.

For the purpose of regulating the use of FCMs, the Food Safety Law proposes that manufacturing new food contact substances (including resins and additives) need to pass the safety assessment of the National Health Commission of the People’s Republic of China (NHC). As long as the new food contact substances pass the assessment and obtain the registration approval, they are permitted to be sold or used.

Therefore, in order to help enterprises better understand the status and requirements of the notification of new food contact substances, Food Regulatory Team from CIRS Group made this guide which comprehensively introduces and interprets the current management mechanism of new food contact substances in China and the approval status of new food contact substances, and summarizes the approved substances as a list for reference.

The Guideline can be divided as following:

Section 1: Introduction of New Food Contact Substance

Section 2: Status and Analysis of New Food Contact Substance Notification

Section 3: The Present Laws and Regulations of New Food Contact Substance

Section 4: Notification Requirements of New Food Contact Substance
