FEICA seminar – focused on safety of adhesives in food applications




To ensure the safety of packaging used for food applications FEICA, the Association of the European Adhesive and Sealant Industry organised a food contact seminar in Brussels recently.
Titled ‘Safe Adhesives for Safe Food, the seminar concentrated on migration testing of adhesives and especially the testing of the migration of mineral oil hydrocarbons. It was intended for persons that have to carry out migration testing or assess the results of such tests.
With an impressive line-up of experts from H B Fuller, Henkel AG, Nynas and Laboratory Lommatzsch, registrations totalled almost 100 adhesives manufacturers and other actors in the supply chain.
The seminar provided insights into sample preparation, testing and interpretation of the results, common errors and pitfalls regarding migration testing, and the possible limits of analytical methods.
Alexandra Ross, product regulatory specialist at H B Fuller launched the seminar with an introduction to the adhesive industry and the food packaging sector. She was followed by a presentation on migration testing approaches for adhesives by Andre Weiss, manager instrumental analytics, food safety at Henkel. ensure the safety of packaging used for food applications FEICA, the Association of the European Adhesive and Sealant Industry organised a food contact seminar in Brussels recently.
