Platform for migration, hazard and risk assessment of chemicals from food contact materials (FCMs)

Our service offers a comprehensive platform to support the safe and sustainable development, risk assessment, and compliance evaluation of Food Contact Materials (FCMs). The platform integrates three key modules:

  1. Migration & Exposure: Standardizes the evaluation of substance migration, with options for ISO 17025-accredited experiments or predictions using the VERMEER-FCM model.
  2. Hazard Assessment: Utilizes databases, in silico tools like SILIFOOD, and in vitro tests for toxicological data collection.
  3. Risk Assessment & Compliance Evaluation: Combines exposure and hazard data to perform risk assessments and ensures compliance with FCM legislation.

This service is designed for researchers, regulatory agencies, scientific institutes, and industries involved in food packaging. We provide virtual and on-site training on our tools and support for legislative interpretation and conformity assessment.
