Dear Sir/Madam,

 

We're food packaging manufacturer and have been certified FSSC 22000.

Some of our raw materials (e.g. lacquer) were intentionally used Epoxidized Soybean Oil (ESBO) in their ingredients. Annex II of reg. UE 1169/11 actually indicates, among the allergenic substances, "soybean and soybean products, except refined soybean oil and fat". There was a supplier that stated it is an allergen, but the others are not.

 

Does Epoxidized Soybean Oil (ESBO) categorize as an allergen? Is an allergen test needed?

 

 

please share with us if you have suggestions or insights about this matter.

 

Thank you in advance.
