Which Country Uses LFGB? How to Obtain LFGB Certification for Baking Molds?
With increasing global attention to environmental protection and human health, SVHC (Substances of Very High Concern) testing has become increasingly vital across industries. For many manufacturers, understanding the SVHC list update cycle and relevant industry compliance requirements has become essential. Today, the editor from Huabiao Testing shares insights on which country uses LFGB and how to obtain LFGB certification for baking molds.
Which Country Uses LFGB Testing?
LFGB testing primarily applies to Germany, where it is a regulatory requirement under the German Food and Commodities Act for food contact materials and articles. As Germany is a member of the European Union, LFGB test reports are often recognized by other EU countries as proof of compliance with relevant safety standards, allowing products to be sold in the EU market. However, LFGB test reports are not applicable in the United States, which has its own food contact material testing requirements, such as FDA regulations.
How to Obtain LFGB Certification for Baking Molds?
Consult a Professional Certification Agency: Start by contacting a professional certification agency, such as Ningbo Huabiao Testing, to inquire about specific LFGB certification requirements and the necessary documentation. Typically, you will need to provide basic documents such as product manuals, material composition lists, production process descriptions, and laboratory test reports proving compliance with LFGB standards.
Submit Samples: Send samples of the baking molds to the certification agency. The agency will conduct tests according to LFGB standards, including sensory testing (odor and taste) and chemical migration testing, to ensure that no harmful substances migrate into food during use.
Receive the Test Report and Certification: Upon completion of testing, the certification agency will issue a test report. If the results meet LFGB standards, they will provide an LFGB certification certificate. With this certification, you can label your product with the LFGB certification mark, enhancing brand image and customer trust.
