What are the precautions for the application of color copperplate label paper in the food industry?

Color plate label paper is widely used in the food industry, mainly used to provide important information such as the name of the product, ingredients, shelf life, production date and so on. However, in order to ensure the effectiveness and compliance of the label paper, the following matters need to be noted when applied in the food industry:

First, the quality and safety of label paper

1. Choose high quality materials:

Ensure that the color label paper meets food safety standards, is non-toxic, harmless, and will not cause contamination to food.

Choose labels that are resistant to oil, water and wear to meet the special needs of food packaging.

2. Safety of printing ink:

Use food-grade safe ink for printing to ensure that harmful substances in the ink do not migrate to the food.

Pay attention to the dryness of the ink to avoid the label paper sticking or contaminating the food because the ink is not dry.

Second, accuracy and compliance of label information

1. Information integrity:

Ensure that the information on the label is complete and accurate, including the product name, specifications, production date, shelf life, and manufacturer.

For foods that require special instructions, such as allergen information and nutrition facts, they should also be clearly marked on the label.

2. Compliance requirements:

Comply with relevant laws, regulations and standards, such as the Food Safety Law, the General Principles of Pre-Packaged Food Labeling, etc., to ensure that the information on the label meets the requirements.

Pay attention to the special requirements of food labels in different countries and regions to ensure the compliance of export food labels.

Third, the application and paste of label paper

1. Adhesion fastness:

Ensure that the label paper can be firmly attached to the food packaging, and it is not easy to fall off or warp.

Choose the appropriate paste method and paste agent to adapt to different materials of food packaging.

2. Environmental adaptability:

Consider the environmental conditions that food packaging may face, such as temperature, humidity, etc., and choose labels that can adapt to these conditions.

Avoid label deformation, fading, or falling off in extreme environments.

Fourth, label paper management and traceability

1. Establish a management system:

Establish a sound label paper management system, including procurement, storage, use, recycling and other links to ensure the quality and safety of label paper.

Batch management of the label paper so that it can be quickly traced and recalled in case of problems.

2. Training staff:

Conduct relevant training for employees to make them understand the importance and use of label paper, and improve their awareness of label paper management.

In summary, the application of color copperplate label paper in the food industry requires attention to the quality and safety of the label paper, the accuracy and compliance of the label information, the application and paste of the label paper, and the management and traceability of the label paper. These measures help to ensure the effectiveness and compliance of food labelling, thus protecting the rights and interests of consumers and food safety.
