As stainless steel pots are kitchen utensils that are in direct contact with food, whether they need to undergo German LFGB food contact material testing can be considered and analyzed from the following aspects:
1. The purpose and scope of LFGB testing:
LFGB is the abbreviation of Germany's "Food and Daily Necessities Act", which ensures that materials and products in contact with food will not harm human health during use.
It focuses on food contact materials, which includes everything that comes into contact with food, from food packaging to kitchen utensils, cutlery, food containers and baking paper.
The LFGB test is for all materials, including products produced with new processes, such as chrome plating for barbecue grills and Teflon coating temperature resistance testing for cooking pans.
2. The relationship between stainless steel basin and LFGB:
As a type of kitchenware, stainless steel basins are in direct contact with food, so they fall within the scope of LFGB testing.
Through LFGB testing, it can be ensured that the stainless steel basin will not release harmful substances into the food during use, thus protecting the health of consumers.
3. Main items and processes of LFGB testing:
Test items: usually include initial inspection of samples and materials, sensory evaluation of odor and taste transfer, testing of transferable or leachable substances, etc. For stainless steel materials, pay special attention to the testing of its composition and possible heavy metals (such as chromium, nickel, lead, etc.) that may precipitate.
Testing process: The applicant provides product information, determines the test items, signs the contract and pays the fee, conducts sample testing, and finally issues a test report and certificate of conformity (if it meets LFGB standards).
