Finally, adhesives in food packaging and other food packaging materials must comply with FDA’s GMP regulation, found in 21 C.F.R. Section 174.5, “General provisions applicable to indirect food additives.” The most critical GMP requirement for packaging materials is that they be suitably pure for their intended use. This means that the food contact material may not impart anything to food that can make it harmful or deleterious to health or impart an off-taste or odor to food. In this regard, FDA points out that even if a food contact material complies in all respects with the specifications or limitations set out in the applicable regulations, its use will be viewed as violating the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act if it results in adulteration of food.
