EN 15622 Chemical Residue Detection in Food Packaging: Laboratory Testing Services

The detection of chemical residues in food packaging is a critical aspect of ensuring the safety and quality of food products. The European Standard EN 15622, which was developed by CEN (Comité Européen de Normalisation), provides a framework for the testing and evaluation of chemical residues in food packaging materials.

Legal and Regulatory Framework

The legal and regulatory framework surrounding EN 15622 testing is governed by various national and international standards. In the European Union, the General Food Law Regulation (EC) No 178/2002 sets out the principles of food law, including the requirements for food safety and quality. The regulation emphasizes the importance of ensuring that all stages of food production are controlled to prevent contamination.

International and National Standards

EN 15622 is based on various international standards, including ISO 6486-1:2018 (Determination of extractable substances in packaging materials - Part 1: Requirements), ISO 9001:2015 (Quality management systems - Requirements), and ISO 14001:2015 (Environmental management systems - Requirements). At the national level, EU member states have implemented their own regulations and standards to ensure compliance with EN 15622.

Standard Development Organizations

The development of EN 15622 is managed by CEN, which is a European standardization organization that develops voluntary standards for various industries. CEN works closely with other international organizations, such as the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), to develop and maintain global standards.
