Whether they are eating a pre-made sandwich or heating up leftovers, it's important that consumers can trust the items that come into contact with the food they eat. In fact, the safety of food contact materials (FCM) is just as crucial as the safety of the food itself. 

This is because hazardous contaminants can migrate from food containers, tableware or utensils into food, posing a risk to consumer health. Due to this, there are stringent FCM safety standards and regulations worldwide.
