When to use it

Check the rules for each market.

A change that works technically may have different implications in different places. We research the food-contact requirements, producer obligations, taxes and claims relevant to the pack and markets in your brief.

What we need

We need to know the food, the complete pack, its materials, the proposed claims and the jurisdictions involved. Our brief separates rules currently in force from proposals and guidance, and identifies points that need local interpretation.

The report

A dated report you can trace back to its sources.

For the pack family, question and jurisdictions agreed with you, we list the sources we reviewed, when they were current and how they may affect the pack. We also identify matters that call for local interpretation. We quote a fixed fee for the agreed research. Legal advice, EPR registration, filings, testing and certification require separate providers or work.
