Information Notice No.2004-64
(can be communica ted within the meaning of the law of 17 July 1978)
Subject: materials in contact with foodstuffs趔趄是什么意思
Summary: The purpo of this information notice is to specify the rules ud to check
and control the suitability of many materials to be in contact with foodstuffs
It repeals and replaces the information notice No.2000-155 of 26th October 2000.
The decree No. 92-631 of 8th July 1992 which transpos the directive 89/109/CEE relating to
materials and objects intended to be put in contact with foodstuffs, specifies that the materials mu st be inert with regards to foodstuffs.
To apply this principle of inertia to the different types of material, some application texts must define the rules (composition, purity criteria etc.) ensur ing the suitability of each material category to be in contact with foodstuffs .Many specific directives in the field of plastics materials and regenerated cellulo film s have thus been adopted and transpod by decree.
Furthermore, in the abnce of a specific directive applicable to a particular type of material, the national regulations are applicable , such as the regulation relating to stainless steel, aluminium and to its alloys, rubber and silicon elastomers.
However, many materials are not subject to a specific regulation either at the European or National level, or are not completly regulated . It deals with This concerns cardboard,wood,lacquer, glues and adhesives and some metals and their alloys.
In addition, even for the regulated material categories , the rules to be ud to check the conformity of the material or the object have to be clarified, as the field is complex.

To overcome the difficulties the DGCCRF (General Directorate of Competition, Consumption and Fraud Repression ) has gathered the laboratories competen t in the field
of the materials in contact, material and transform ing industries and agri-food industries
within a work group called "the think-tank on regulations and methods for the asssment
of the inertia of materials intended to be in contact with foodstuffs".
This work group has been meeting since 1992 ( three meetings per years) and is carrying on working. The workgroup is responsible for making sheets for the different types of material s to speci
fy the methods to check their suitability for food contact within the framework of specific regulations, and in the abnce of regulat ion.
为人师表The sheets are intended for laboratories working in the analysis of materials in contact, industries manufacturing and producing materials and objects for contact with foodstuffs,
agri-food industries and official inspection rvices.
They deals with the following material categories:
• Plastic materials;
• Composites;
•Ceramics, glass, crystal, glass ceramics, enamelled objects;
•Paper and cardboard;
• Aluminium ;
• Stainless steel;
•Steel excluding packaging;
•Uncoated steel for packaging (black plate);
•Steel with metallic coating ud for packaging (Tinplate)

•Zinc ;
•Various coated metals and whitened metal;
• Rubber.
Th is information notice repeals and replaces the information notice No.2000-155.
This document will also be displayed on the Directorate's website in the ction called "Update on…" to allow the various operators concerned to have an easy acces.

GENERAL SHEET RELATING TO THE REGULATION
OF MATERIALS IN CONTACT WITH FOODSTUFFS
The basic text regulating the suitability of materials and objects intended to be in contact with foodst
uffs, food products and drinks (1) is the decree No.92-631 of 8th July 1992. The regulations applicable to the various operators concerned, for the relevant materials and objects, come
from this text.
1. Scope of the decree of 8th July, 199
2.
The text applies to the following materials and objects:
products;
− Finished
−Intended to be in contact with foodstuffs;
−Or put in contact with the foodstuffs for which they are intended.
Conquently, the regulations are not directly deal with raw or intermediate materials (e.g.: polymeres granul before constitution of the object). T he manufacturer of the material or the finished
object is responsible for ensuring next to his suppliers or by any other means that the raw materials and the process he us enable him to meet his obligations.
The materials and objects are divide d into:
−Packages and packaging,
−Kitchen receptacles and utensils,
−Materials, machines and equipment ud in the production, storage or transport of foodstuffs,
−Teats and dummies.
The foodstuffs concerned are food and drink: (including water intended for human or animal consumption and natural mineral waters):
:
−As well as finished products as intermediate products,
−Which are intended for human or animal consumption.
The following element s are not concerned:
materials
− Coating
−Fixed installations for distributing drinking water.
2. Obligations applicable to materials
2.1. P rinciple of inertia (article 3 of the decree):
Materials and objects sh all be inert with regard to foodstuffs.T hey must particularly not: − Relea constituents in quantities which endanger health (of man or animals);
− Cau an unacceptable change in the composition of the foodstuff;
− Alter the organoleptic properties of the foodstuff.
(1 ) Foodstuffs, food products and drinks are hereafter referred to as "foodstuffs".
