Intertek, a leading Total Quality Assurance provider to industries worldwide, is a proud exhibitor of NPE 2024 taking place in Orlando, Florida from May 6-10, 2024.

Across the polymers and plastics supply chain, a range of challenges are encountered in safety, quality, process, regulatory compliance, performance, and lifecycle. Whether you are a base chemical provider, additive supplier, converter, compounder, or end user, overcoming these challenges can give your business a significant commercial advantage.

Every three years, bold leaders, creative thinkers, and visionaries from every industry in the world gather at NPE to advance their business through innovations in plastics. NPE 2024 will bring together more than 55,000 leaders from over 110 countries representing every industry—from automotive to healthcare to consumer products to construction and more. This event is designed to help organizations leverage innovations, drive major business growth, and build a more sustainable economy.

During the event, our Intertek Assuris experts will be exhibiting at booth #S24091 in the South Hall Level 1. Attendees are encouraged to meet with our experts at the Intertek booth for consultation. Register today for free using our complimentary guest pass and join us in Orlando!

The Intertek Advantage

Food contact regulatory requirements around the world are complex with different regions requiring their own notifications for new food contact substances and compliance specifications for food contact materials. Intertek’s strategic and methodical approach to gathering information, establishing regulatory considerations, and formulating testing requirements and documentation can help you to achieve compliance, support notification, or provide the analytical and chemical testing data and insight you need for your specific food contact materials or articles - whether they are comprised of plastics, elastomers, composites, films, paper and board, glass, metals, ceramics, printed or coated materials, or other materials.

Acting as a third party in the value chain, we will help you coordinate information between business partners, evaluate formulations under nondisclosure agreements, ensure compliance of the evaluated products, and assess all parameters pertaining to ongoing sustainability initiatives throughout the various stages of development, sourcing, and manufacturing, as well as to market.

In addition, Intertek is a full-service provider for recyclers and recycled material manufacturers. Our service offering is designed to support regulatory compliance and evaluate the safe use of recycled plastic in food contact materials and articles. Our experts review the compliance status of individual components that comprise the final food contact material to ensure each component complies with applicable regulations for its intended end use.

  • Global Food Contact Petitions and Notifications
  • Global Regulatory Compliance
  • FDA No-objection letters or Pre-Notification Consultation for recycled materials  
  • EFSA petition for recycled materials process
