As a global society, people are becoming more cognizant of not only what’s in their products, but in the containers that house them as well.
At Colour Synthesis Solutions (CSS), a large portion of our work is focused on plastic materials and making sure they’re safe and functional, especially when they come in contact with food.

Now, as regulations and the circular economy shift their focus, they’re placing an emphasis on the additives in plastic materials.
Because of this, companies like yours need to be aware of the potential hazards in your plastics beyond food contact materials.

How can you account for known and unknown impurities of your product?

By carrying out these tests, we’re able to help companies narrow the scope and quantity of impurities to reduce the expense of testing.
If your business works with raw materials, intermediates, and final parts, we encourage you to act now and test your products.
