🌟 MEET GFSI TRACEABILITY STANDARDS! Did you know that "Traceability, Quality Assurance, and Auditing" are among the top ink management challenges faced by package printing professionals around the world? These critical factors play a vital role in ensuring the safety and quality of food packaging, especially in the ever-demanding food industry where safety is paramount. Stay tuned for expert insights and best practices on how to navigate these challenges effectively! In the food industry, maintaining stringent safety standards is non-negotiable, and the ability to track ink batches accurately is a fundamental aspect of ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements. Are you well-equipped and prepared to meet the stringent criteria set forth by Global Food Safety Initiative (GFSI) audits? You will be expected to perform a traceability exercise, within a designated time limit (BRCGS stipulates a 4-hour limit). To pass, you must recover a minimum 98% of all selected materials. Failure can constitute a major violation and, in some cases, automatic failure. The complicating factor with ink traceability is that spot colours are blended from a formula of base components. Additionally, the base components of reused press-return inks must be identified. Performing a recovery exercise according to GFSI requirements would be practically impossible. With GSE Traceability software, instant reporting of full ink batch-to-job or job-to-batch traceability becomes possible.

FSSAI asks FBOs to use pre-printed pkg materials by Dec 3 The FSSAI has set a final deadline for food businesses to utilise the pre-printed packaging materials and asked them to use any such material by December 31, 2023. “It has been decided to grant a final one-time permission up to 31.12.2023 to the FBOs seeking permission to use such non-complying pre-printed packaging materials (PPMs),” reads the order issued by the FSSAI after Food Business Operators (FBOs) sought time to use pre-printed packaging materials which are non-complying with the FSS (Labelling & Display) Regulations, 2020, and its amendments. The FSSAI has also revised the fee for any food business applying for permission to use the pre-printed packaging materials, which is Rs 30,000 plus GST for the Central licensees and Rs 12,000 plus GST for state licensees, to be paid through the e-payment portal of the FSSAI. Meanwhile according to the FSSAI, the application(s) seeking permission to use pre-printed packaging material(s) due to (i) change in address, (ii) change in company name or (iii) change in licence number shall be processed under the extant instructions issued vide orders issued on November 23, 2016, and the fee shall be applicable as per order issued on November 14, 2017.
