European Coatings Conference "FOOD CONTACT COATINGS"
June 12th - 13th 2008 / Berlin, Germany
Safety first!
The most important application category for food contact materials are coatings and inks used in food packaging with respect to the potential for migration to occur. There is no doubt: Food safety is of high importance. Migration of coatings components into foodstuff is a subject of increasing interest and an important aspect of food packaging because of the possible hazardous effects on human health. Therefore we have set up the European Coatings Conference “Food contact coatings”.
Focusing on developments in raw materials and inks as well as on current legislation the conference will provide you with ideal networking opportunities and up-todate information. This premiere will present 11 high-level technical papers, given by invited international experts, on topics such as
prevention of photoinitiator migration
raw materials for food contact coatings
anti-fogging
printed oxygen indicators
The conference will additionally host the pre-conference tutorial "Basics on food contact coatings" enabling conference delegates to acquire a profound base knowledge on general requirements for food contact coatings, rigid packaging coatings, new trends in food contact coatings and legislation issues.
