Shandong Yishui: strict inspection with DEHP bottle cap gasket

The “Measures for the Hygienic Management of Plastic Products and Raw Materials for Foods” promulgated by the Ministry of Health in November 1990 stipulates that “synthetic resins and processed plastic products shall comply with their respective hygiene standards” and “wherever plastic utensils, containers, and packaging materials are used Auxiliaries should meet the hygiene requirements for the use of additives for food containers and packaging materials." The national standard GB9685-2003 “Hygienic Standards for the Use of Additives for Food Containers and Packaging Materials” stipulates that DEHP cannot be used in food containers and packaging materials, and PVC and products containing DEHP cannot be used for food packaging.

In daily food consumption, consumers may have noticed the gaskets in the bottle caps of bottled foods, but few people know that these inconspicuous sealed cap gaskets will give food quality and safety once they are used improperly. Planting major safety hazards. According to relevant requirements, the Quality Supervision Bureau of Lishui County of Shandong Province started emergency law enforcement inspections on food production enterprises within its jurisdiction from December 4th. It strictly investigated oil-producing foods and unscrewing bottle cap production enterprises, and used o-phenylbenzene for illegal production. The behavior of formate plasticizers (DEHP) is banned and corrected.

The AQSIQ discovered in the recent risk monitoring that DEHP was detected in packages containing fats and oils. It is a plasticizer and plastic products containing DEHP are strictly prohibited in food packages containing fats and oils. It is understood that DEHP is a general term for about 30 compounds, mainly for softening, and is commonly used in food packaging materials using polyvinyl chloride as the main raw material, food cap gaskets (gaskets), toys, medical blood bags and hoses, and ethylene. The phthalate plasticizer commonly used in flooring and wallpapers, detergents, lubricating oils, and personal care products is dibutyl phthalate (DOP). Phthalates are easily precipitated in oils, alcohols and other environments. Related medical studies have shown that phthalates have specific toxicities to animals such as carcinogenicity, teratogenicity and mutagenicity, and show strong endocrine disruption.

In order to ensure the safe use of phthalates in food and other industries, China has also formulated specific regulations. For example, the national standards stipulate the sanitary requirements for PVC (polyvinyl chloride) cap gaskets and pellets for food packaging, and the Hygienic Standards for Polyvinyl Chloride Bottle Cap Gaskets and Granules for Food Packaging (GB 14944-1994). PVC bottle cap gaskets (washers) can be used for cans of soda, beer, rice wine, distilled wine caps and jams, but must not be exposed to food containing oils and fats. National standards also stipulate the use of phthalates as plasticizers in food containers and packaging materials such as plastics and rubber. Hygiene Standards for the Use of Additives for Food Containers and Packaging Materials (GB 9685-2003) stipulates that DOP is allowed to be used, and the maximum amount is 40%.

The Water Quality Supervision Bureau organized a pull-net inspection according to the requirements of its superior work. The relevant person in charge of the Water Quality Supervision Bureau introduced that the inspection company is a manufacturer of fat-containing foods and rotary caps within its jurisdiction, which will focus on checking the source of the caps used by the manufacturers of fat-containing foods, whether they are required to obtain certificates, and whether Purchase acceptance records, whether to obtain each batch of inspection reports, annual usage, inventory, etc., bottle cap manufacturing companies focus on checking where the sales are going, annual production, raw materials used for gaskets, whether plasticizers such as DEHP are used, and foods containing fats and oils. Whether the used bottle cap has a special mark, and whether the bottle cap used in fat-containing foods has a warning sign or not. The problem-prone food production enterprises found during the inspection shall be immediately obliged to stop production or stop sales and recall unqualified foods; and enterprises that refuse to recall and continue production and sales shall be strictly dealt with according to law.

In view of the current situation of food in Surabaya, the relevant person in charge of the Water Quality Supervision Bureau believes that dried shredded pork and chili pepper products are the key products for inspection. The Bureau has already made targeted work arrangements to resolutely investigate and deal with violative production and ensure that consumers Health and safety promote the healthy development of the food industry in Surabaya.
