PACKAGING CONSULTANCY

The legislation on packaging in contact with food is extremely rigorous - with a view to consumer protection - detailed - also providing for specificities at a local level - as well as constantly evolving. To the already complex picture, the requirements linked to the sustainability aspects of packaging have recently been added with the opening towards the use of recycled plastic also for products intended for food contact as well as the review of the obligations linked to the environmental impact of the end of life (packaging waste).
