Materials and articles in contact with food (MOCA)
The food handling glove is not only a fundamental hygiene device, but is also classified as a MOCA (Materials and Objects in Contact with Food).
(REC 1935/2004/EC - DM 21.03.1973, REG EU 10/2011 and subsequent updates and amendments).
"Materials and Objects intended to come into Contact with Food must be manufactured according to good manufacturing practices so that they do not transfer components to food products in quantities such as to: pose a danger to human health; bring about an unacceptable change in the composition of the food; bring about a deterioration of the organoleptic characteristics of the food."
All parties in the food supply chain (producer/importer/distributor/end user) are legally obliged to verify and comply with the requirements of MOCA legislation. In line with the provisions of the law, Reflexx conducts global migration and specific migration tests on its gloves, using chemical substances that simulate the behavior of all food groups, as shown in the table below
