As a vessel in direct contact with food, the thermos cup needs to undergo US FDA food contact material testing. This is because the FDA has strict safety requirements for food contact materials to ensure that these materials do not release harmful substances into food, thus protecting the health of consumers.
US FDA food contact material testing steps for thermos cups:
1. Determine the testing standards: According to the regulations of the FDA, the thermos cup needs to comply with the relevant standards and regulations of the FDA. These standards and regulations may involve aspects such as material safety, chemical composition, physical properties, etc.
2. Choose the appropriate testing method: Different testing methods may be used for different materials and product characteristics. For example, chemical composition analysis, migration testing, toxicity assessment, etc. may be required.
3. Prepare samples: According to the requirements of the testing method, prepare a sufficient number of samples that meet the requirements. Make sure the sample has not been processed in any way to reflect the true condition of the product.
4. Submit application and review: Enterprises need to submit an application to FDA and submit relevant information, including product ingredients, production process, safety assessment report, etc. FDA will review the application to confirm whether the company has the qualifications and capabilities to produce qualified food-grade contact materials.
5. Sampling testing: After passing the review, FDA will conduct sampling testing on the products produced by the company. Sampling testing may include chemical testing, microbiological testing and physical performance testing.
6. Laboratory testing: FDA will send the extracted samples to designated laboratories for testing. The laboratory will test the samples for various indicators in accordance with FDA requirements and issue a test report.
7. Result evaluation: FDA will evaluate the safety of the product based on the laboratory test report. If the product meets FDA standards and regulations, it can obtain food grade certification.
8. Certification and supervision: Products of companies that have obtained food-grade certification can enter the U.S. market. At the same time, the FDA will also conduct regular supervision and inspections of certified companies to ensure that they continue to comply with relevant standards and regulations.
