Introduction: Why Food Grade Printing Ink Matters
Food grade printing ink plays a critical role in ensuring the safety and quality of food packaging. At Hangzhou Hongchang Paper Co.,Ltd, we are committed to using only certified food-safe materials for our products. This is why all of our greaseproof paper and wax paper are printed exclusively with safe, food grade printing ink, ensuring both safety and stunning visual presentation for your brand.
What Is Food Grade Printing Ink?
Food grade printing ink is specially formulated for materials that come into direct or indirect contact with food. Compared to traditional ink, food grade ink is:
- Free of harmful chemicals, heavy metals, and toxic solvents
- Designed to prevent chemical migration into food
- Tested and approved according to strict regulations
You can learn more about global food-contact safety rules from reliable sources such as EFSA – European Food Safety Authority (https://www.efsa.europa.eu/en/topics/topic/food-contact-materials?utm_source=chatgpt.com).
