The testing and certification required for exporting glass cups to the European Union include the EU food contact material certification. In addition, it is also necessary to meet the ROHS standard, which means it does not contain harmful substances such as lead, mercury, cadmium, etc. At the same time, it may involve CE certification, which is a mandatory standard for the safety, health, and environmental protection of some products in the European Union.


The EU food contact material testing for glass cups refers to the safety testing of the materials in contact with food in the glass cup. The purpose of this test is to ensure that the glass does not release harmful substances when in contact with food, thereby ensuring the health and safety of consumers.


The European Union has strict regulations and standards for food contact materials, including limit requirements for various chemicals, heavy metals, harmful substances, etc. As a container that comes into direct contact with food, the material of the glass must comply with these standards, otherwise it will be prohibited from being sold in the EU market.


When testing EU food contact materials in glass cups, multiple testing methods are usually used, including chemical composition analysis, migration testing, toxicological evaluation, etc. These testing methods can comprehensively evaluate the safety of glass cup materials and ensure their compliance with relevant EU regulations and standards.


The purpose of EU ROHS testing and certification for glass cups is to detect whether they contain harmful substances and ensure the environmental protection and safety of the product. The ROHS Directive is a mandatory standard of the European Union that restricts the use of certain harmful substances, including lead, mercury, cadmium, etc., in electronic and electrical equipment.
