The new version of "Hygienic Standards for the Use of Food Additives" (GB2760-2007) has been formally implemented since June 1. This new standard puts higher safety and hygiene requirements on China's food additive industry.
Compared with the original standard, the new standard has increased the definition of food additives, the principle of the use of food additives, and the food classification system; it has added a list of additives that are used in a proper amount according to production needs in various types of foods, and an exception to the list of food categories; adjustments The varieties, scope of use, and maximum usage of some food additives have been improved; the search methods for standard queries have been improved. Overall, the standard is basically in line with the Codex Alimentarius Commission's General Standard for Food Additives (GSFA).
From the industry point of view, food additives belong to the fine chemical industry, mainly inorganic salt products. At present, the issue of food safety has become the focus of widespread public attention, and the safe and rational use of food additives is directly related to food safety. In accordance with the development of the food industry, the new standard has added some new types of additives. At the same time, it has also stipulated the amount and scope of use of some existing food additives. Related companies must carefully study the new version of the “Standard†to make appropriate Adjustments to comply with the new standard.
In general, the development and demand of the food industry will drive the development of fine chemicals. In the development process of the food industry, with the progress of the process, food additives have also been proposed for research, development, replacement, and upgrading. The requirements of the food industry must be met in terms of color, flavor, taste, and functionality. At the same time, this opens up a broader market for the food additive industry. For example, phosphate products are used in the food industry and are continuously expanding. They include phosphoric acid, sodium tripolyphosphate, sodium pyrophosphate, sodium hexametaphosphate, sodium dihydrogen phosphate, disodium hydrogen phosphate, potassium tripolyphosphate, and potassium pyrophosphate. Ten varieties, as well as multiple complex phosphates formulated from these monomers.
The new standard also sets forth clear requirements for the principles of the introduction of food additives. Bringing in refers to that a certain food additive is not directly added to the food, but is brought into the food through other food original ingredients containing the food additive. This introduction should meet the following principles: First, the use of food additives in food ingredients; Second, the amount of additives in food ingredients should not exceed the maximum allowable use of the "Food Additive Hygiene Standards"; In the use of these ingredients under normal production process conditions, the content of the additive in the food should not exceed the level brought in by the ingredients; the fourth is the content of the additive brought into the food by the ingredients should be significantly lower than the direct addition to the The level usually required in the food.
At the same time, the implementation of the new standard puts forward higher social responsibility requirements for food additive companies. Companies are required to regulate production and use in order to ensure food safety. Since the second half of last year, the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine of the People's Republic of China has launched a nationwide campaign to rectify product quality and food safety. Since the beginning of this year, the relevant person in charge of the AQSIQ has repeatedly stated that in-depth product quality and food safety special rectification are still the top priorities for this year, and this requires the production and use of food additive companies to truly shoulder this social responsibility.
