Henkel fosters Food Safety

By March 29, 2016 12:28 pm IST

  Henkel Adhesive Technologies India Pvt Ltd, a subsidiary of Henkel AG and Co. KGaA, organised an industry gathering on the “Role of Flexible Packaging in Food Safety” in association with Siegwerk group in Mumbai, on February 3rd. Henkel and Seigwerk used the event to impart knowledge on the best practices that the flexible packaging ecosystem needs to adopt in order to ensure food safety; thus, ensuring customer satisfaction.
The event had the participation and collaborative approach from end-to-end stakeholders within the food packaging value chain. FMCG companies such as Mondelez International, Mother Dairy, Kellogg’s and Parle and packaging giants such as Huhtamaki, Amcor and Constantia, and other stakeholders from the flexible packaging ecosystem, were also a part of the event.
A flexible pack mainly contains films, inks, adhesives and coatings, amongst others, and each of these components contribute to food safety. Flexible laminates comprise different layers; each of these layers has a different function. Speakers from different companies highlighted the need to increase awareness on food safety among stakeholders of the packaging ecosystem. They also underscored the need for communication and use of food safe formulations across the supply chain in order to comply with regulations and ensure that the end product packaging is food safe.
