China Non-compliant Data of Imported Food Contact Materials and Articles Q1 2018

Silicon feeding bottles and feeding nipples imported from Korea were found non-compliant due to excessive concentration of volatile substances.

During the first quarter of 2018, China AQSIQ publicized data on 69 batches of non-compliant imported industrial products, including 7 batches of unqualified food contact materials and articles. The rejections mainly resulted from excessive bacterial colonies, unqualified product identification, and excessive concentration of volatile substances. The following table shows details.
