Barbeque grills exported to France require DGCCRF food contact material testing. French regulations have special requirements for plastic and rubber products that come into contact with food. The materials, processes, and safety of barbecue grills need to be tested and certified to ensure that the products comply with relevant standards and regulations.

As a food contact material, if the barbecue grill is exported to France, it must comply with the requirements of the French DGCCRF food contact materials regulations and undergo relevant testing and certification.



Guidelines for French DGCCRF food contact material testing of barbecue grills:

1. Understand the regulatory requirements: First, you need to understand the specific requirements and standards of the French DGCCRF food contact materials regulations, including requirements for materials, processes, test items, etc.

2. Select a testing agency: Choose a testing agency with qualifications and experience for testing and certification. Ensure that the testing agency can conduct testing in accordance with the requirements of French DGCCRF regulations and can provide accurate test reports and certification certificates.

3. Prepare samples: According to the requirements of the testing agency, prepare enough barbecue grill samples for testing. Make sure the sample meets the requirements of regulations and has no defects, damage or other problems.

4. Fill in the application form: Submit the application form to the testing agency, including product name, model, quantity, specifications and other information, as well as the specific requirements and testing standards for applying for French DGCCRF certification.

5. Payment of fees: Pay the corresponding French DGCCRF testing fees according to the fee standards provided by the testing agency.

6. Wait for test results: Wait for the testing agency to complete the test and issue the test report and certification certificate. Ensure that test reports and certificates meet regulatory requirements, including correct product information, compliance with required regulatory standards, etc.

7. Upload the certificate: declare the value, quantity, type and other information of the goods at French Customs, and pay the corresponding duties and VAT. At the same time, the French DGCCRF certification certificate and other relevant documents are required for smooth customs clearance.

8. Continuous monitoring: During the period when the product is sold in the French market, it is necessary to continuously monitor the product sales and user feedback to ensure that the product complies with relevant standards and regulations, and to deal with any potential safety issues in a timely manner.



Barbecue grill French DGCCRF food contact material testing project:

1. Chemical substance testing: Detect whether the barbecue grill materials contain harmful chemicals, such as heavy metals, formaldehyde, etc.

2. Migration test: Test whether the chemicals in the barbecue grill materials will be transferred to the food during use, thus affecting food safety.

3. Heat resistance test: Check whether the material of the barbecue grill will deform and release harmful gases during use at high temperatures.

4. Wear resistance and corrosion resistance test: Test whether the surface coating or treatment process of the barbecue grill can resist wear and corrosion to ensure the safety and functionality of long-term use.
