Ceramic cups are cups made of ceramic materials, which have unique advantages and characteristics. Ceramic cups have good heat and cold resistance, and can withstand high and low temperatures, making them suitable for beverages at various temperatures. Secondly, ceramic cups have a hard texture, are not easily deformed, and are durable. In addition, ceramic cups also have good environmental friendliness and will not cause pollution to the environment. What are the FDA food contact testing items for ceramic cups in the United States?

Ceramic cups need to comply with FDA standards and requirements for food contact materials to ensure their safety when used in food contact. The FDA's testing of ceramic cups mainly includes the following aspects:

1. Pollutant testing: Ceramic cups may release harmful substances or heavy metals into food or beverages, so pollutant testing is necessary to ensure that they do not exceed the safety limits specified by the FDA.

2. Crushing test: Ceramic cups need to have a certain level of strength and impact resistance to ensure that they are not easily broken or produce dangerous fragments under normal usage conditions.

3. Temperature stability test: The performance and stability of ceramic cups under different temperature conditions also need to be evaluated to ensure that they can be safely used in food and beverages at various temperatures.


The FDA testing process for ceramic cup food contact materials is as follows:

1. Consultation: The applicant provides product information, pictures, and descriptions.

2. Quotation: Based on the information provided by the applicant, the engineer will evaluate and determine the items to be tested, and provide a quotation to the applicant.

3. The applicant accepts the quotation.

4. The applicant shall fill out the test application form and submit it together with the test samples.

5. Sample testing: The testing will be conducted in accordance with the applicable standards.

6. The laboratory produces a test report.

7. A third-party testing company issues a certificate of compliance with FDA testing.
