Compliance
Certifications & compliance
GNSeal covers sit against food, in kitchens that get audited. Here is exactly what has been tested, by whom, and how to get the paperwork your procurement process needs.
FDA
US food-contact rubber, repeated use
21 CFR 177.2600
The United States food-contact rule for rubber articles intended to be used over and over — the relevant test for a lid you wash and reuse rather than throw away.
GB 4806.11
China national food safety standard
with GB 31604.2, 31604.8 and 31604.9
The food-contact standard for rubber materials and articles — migration and composition limits for material held against food.
REACH
EU chemical safety
Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006
Screens for Substances of Very High Concern. The baseline European buyers ask for when a material touches food.
RoHS
EU restricted substances
Directive (EU) 2015/863 amending 2011/65/EU
Restricts lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium and the regulated phthalates.
Halogen
Halogen content
EN 14582:2016
Measures chlorine, bromine, fluorine and iodine content in the material.
Every standard above was tested by SGS, an accredited third-party laboratory, in March 2024, and passed. The testing was carried out on the food-grade silicone the covers are moulded from — it is material testing, which is what food-contact compliance is assessed on, rather than a certification of GNSeal as a company.
