Food Contact Materials Testing

At Elegant Surveyor Private Limited, our Food Contact Materials (FCM) Testing Services ensure that every material intended to come into contact with food remains safe, compliant, and reliable throughout the supply chain.

Food Contact Materials play a crucial role in maintaining the safety, integrity, and quality of food products — from production and processing to packaging and labeling. Whether it’s during harvesting, transportation, or storage, these materials must not compromise food safety or alter the product’s composition, taste, or appearance.

Ensuring Safety and Compliance

The primary goal of FCM regulations is to ensure that materials do not release harmful substances or affect the organoleptic (sensory) characteristics of food. Compliance testing helps verify that packaging and processing materials meet international food safety standards, thereby protecting both consumers and brands.

At Elegant Surveyor Private Limited, we specialize in advanced analytical testing for Food Contact Materials. Our state-of-the-art laboratories are equipped to evaluate permeability, perform migration testing, analyze residual content, and detect unwanted or non-intentionally added substances (NIAS). We also conduct detailed organoleptic assessments to ensure that materials do not alter the food’s sensory attributes.

Materials We Test

Our testing covers all categories of materials used in contact with food, including:

Plastics
Paper and Paperboard
Bamboo
Stainless Steel
Metals and Alloys
Ceramics
Other Food Contact Materials (FCMs)

Our Testing Capabilities

We provide a comprehensive range of analytical tests, including:

Migration Testing – To assess potential transfer of substances from packaging to food.
Residual Content Analysis – To determine leftover manufacturing substances.
Detection of Non-Intentionally Added Substances (NIAS) – Identifying unknown or unintended chemical residues.
Organoleptic Analysis – Evaluating changes in taste, odor, or appearance of food.
Extractable and Leachable Testing – Measuring potential release of compounds under specific conditions.
Biodegradability and Compostability Testing – Ensuring materials meet environmental and sustainability standards.
