Good Afternoon folks!

 

Does the FDA have a database of approved items? like the CFIA Reference Listing of Accepted Construction Materials, Packaging ...

 

If a supplier provides a letter stating something is FDA compliant and safe to use for food handling, can I confirm that statement or do I take their word for it?

 

 

TIA

Sincerely,

The QA person that doesn't like the FDA website.

Not sure if you are looking for accepted construction materials only, however FDA has info for GRAS ( generally regarded as safe) for food products.

If you are looking for GRAS for use in food packaging, here is the link:

Hope it helps.
