Safe labels for food

Packaging Solutions

Ritrama has enhanced its range of high performance food labelling materials with the introduction of TC8 top coating, a fully certified treatment which is perfectly combined with selected adhesives to come into contact with food.

The food packaging industry must meet strict regulations to guarantee the safe use of packaging, which does not contaminate food. This includes labelling, which is regulated by specific directives. The stringent requirements a label has to comply with include application to cold and moist surfaces, contact with fatty substances, oil, and storage at deep freeze temperatures.

Ritrama’s food range features a variety of materials for all labelling requirements. There is an extensive selection of filmic and paper face materials to provide information and create safe and attractive labels to promote the brand. It offers an extensive selection of innovative label materials that meet the overall framework of food regulations.

The products that feature the ISEGA approved top coating TC8 and adhesives for contact with food are fully compliant with European Food Regulations EC 1935/2004 and EU 10/2011; the American FDA 175.105 (Food and Drugs Administration) standard and the German Recommendations on Food Contact Materials issued by BfR (Bundesinstitut für Risikobewertung), the German Federal Institute for Risk Assessment.
