SGS HK Ltd

Defined as materials or products intended to come into contact with food and beverages, FCM is already in contact with them, or may reasonably be expected to come into contact with them. FCM can be found in the machinery that processes our food and beverages, the packaging that carries them, and the equipment we use for storage, cooking, and eating food and drink. FCM must not change the food and drink they are in contact with or endanger human health. Globally, different markets maintain their own FCM regulations to prevent products being placed on the market that alter our food or drink, bring about a deterioration in its organoleptic characteristics, or release hazardous substances. SGS’s global network of laboratories can support your products' compliance with the FCM regulations governing your target market such as: EuropeUSACanadaMercosur (Southern Common Market)Asia Pacific RegionComplying with technical specifications alone may not be sufficient to place FCM in certain markets. Some jurisdictions have implemented strict measures and controls by only recognizing designated laboratories to conduct testing and/or certification bodies (CB) to certify the FCMs are in compliance before allowing these products to access their markets. In all regions, compliance with FCM can be a complex process for economic operators. To avoid costly non-compliance, suppliers are advised to seek professional regulatory assistance for their target market.  Food Contact Materials (FCM) services from SGSensure compliance with requirements for sale and distribution in global markets.

Zhongyao LinkTron Tech Co., Limited

Example - Rapeseed Oil Bottle Design:  Design inspiration of the bottle  The design inspiration of this bottle comes from the highly recognizable yak horn shape in the brand logo. By extracting the natural curves and contour features of the yak horn, the brand's visual symbol is ingeniously integrated into the product form, achieving a deep binding of the brand's genes and product design, and enhancing the brand's recognition and memory points.  Meanwhile, the bottle mouth adopts a specific angle of inclined design, which not only visually echoes the natural inclined posture of yak horns but also optimizes the oil pouring operation from an ergonomic perspective - the inclined structure can guide the liquid to flow in a directional manner, reducing residue and overflow during pouring. While ensuring the design aesthetics, it enhances the convenience and practicality of use. The organic unity of form and function has been achieved.
