What Are the Consequences of Non-Compliant Food Safety in HIPS Plastic Rolls?
Food packaging materials play a direct role in protecting consumer health. When HIPS (High Impact Polystyrene) plastic rolls used for food containers fail to meet food contact safety standards, the consequences can be far-reaching — affecting not only product quality but also brand credibility and consumer trust.
1. Chemical Migration Risks
If substandard or recycled materials are used, harmful substances such as styrene monomers or heavy metals may migrate from the plastic surface into food, especially when exposed to high temperatures. This can lead to food contamination and potential health hazards for consumers.
2. Odor and Taste Contamination
Non-compliant HIPS rolls often contain impurities or residual solvents, which may cause unpleasant odor or alter the taste of packaged food — making the product unacceptable for retail sale.
3. Legal and Certification Issues
Manufacturers using non-compliant materials risk failing FDA, EU, or GB4806 inspections, leading to product recalls, fines, and even export restrictions. Such incidents can severely damage a company’s reputation and customer relationships.
4. Loss of Market Trust
Once end consumers lose confidence in the safety of a brand’s packaging, the recovery of that trust can take years.
