As a food contact material, ceramic cups do need to undergo FDA (U.S. Food and Drug Administration) food contact material testing if they are to be sold in the U.S. market. This is because the FDA has strict specifications and requirements for food contact materials to ensure that these materials do not pose a threat to human health when in contact with food.
Steps for ceramic cups to undergo US FDA food contact testing:
1. Contaminant testing
Ceramic cups may release harmful substances or heavy metals into food or drinks, so they need to be tested for contaminants to ensure they do not exceed safety limits set by the FDA.
2. Breakage test
Ceramic cups need to have a certain degree of strength and impact resistance to ensure that they are not easily broken or produce dangerous fragments under normal use conditions.
3. Temperature stability test
The performance and stability of ceramic cups under different temperature conditions also need to be evaluated to ensure that the cups can be safely used with food and beverages at a variety of temperatures.
The specific FDA testing process 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 make an assessment, determine the items that need to be tested, and provide a quotation to the applicant.
3. The applicant accepts the quotation.
4. The applicant fills out the test application form and submits it together with the test samples.
5. Sample testing: Testing will be performed in accordance with applicable standards.
6. The laboratory issues a test report.
7. The third-party testing company issues a certificate of compliance with FDA testing.
The above are the main steps and processes for US FDA food contact testing of ceramic cups. I hope it will be helpful to you.
