Lucideon Publishes Guide on Safe Use of Ceramic and Glass

Revised publication focuses on the packaging that is in contact with food.


Lucideon, a development and commercialization organization (DCO) in the UK, has released a revised edition of its publication “Toxic Metal Release from Ceramic and Glass Ware in Contact with Food.”

Functioning as a guide to worldwide regulations and standards, the handbook indexes the rules for over 80 countries and economic areas, listing the relevant test methods and toxic metal migration limits in a simple and concise table.

The guide is primarily a tool to provide a single point of reference for testing facilities and ceramic, glass and enamel ware manufacturers, however, exporters, importers, retailers and glaze or color producers will also find it an invaluable resource to ensure their products conform to relevant international requirements.
