Helping Manufacturers Ensure Compliance In Food Packaging Materials

With ever-changing compliance rules, manufacturers need to be sure that the materials they receive are acceptable for use in the packaging they produce. Information from materials suppliers is one important source of information, and needs to be carefully reviewed, and in some cases, further investigation is advised. If any material is not compliant, the manufacturer and the supplier could be held accountable under the law.

If you have questions about whether any component of your packaging is compliant, it is important that you have sound advice from a qualified attorney. At the law firm of Eric F. Greenberg, P.C., we represent clients across the United States and around the world in a wide variety of food packaging component review and compliance matters.

Sustaining The Effort To Update Green Guides

Sustaining The Effort To Update Green Guides

By Eric F. Greenberg, Attorney-at-law

Years ago, when I first read about the concept of “sustainability,” I teased that it was too vague and had too many meanings to too many people to be useful. Today, I am not sure things have improved much.

Of all the various terminology packagers can use when making environment-related claims in labeling or advertising, perhaps the most slippery is “sustainable.” It’s used more and more by marketers, and I don’t think too many marketers are using the term falsely or misleadingly. The problem is that the term’s meaning is still not clearly or consistently understood by consumers.

This does not mean any company that claims its package or product is somehow “sustainable” is making a false or misleading statement. It just means the claim probably requires some explanation so consumers know exactly what the company means.
