BLL Toolbox to Prevent Undesired Mineral Oil Entries

The "Toolbox for Avoiding Input of Undesirable Mineral Oil Hydrocarbons in Food" was published by the BLL in December 2017 and offers comprehensive background information and practical decision-making aids on this topic to all areas of the food industry as well as laboratories and suppliers. It is freely accessible to everyone.

The new toolbox includes, among other things, tabular compilations of the currently known pathways of mineral oil hydrocarbons through migration, contamination, and the use of food additives and processing aids. In this context, it provides companies with practical suggestions and ideas on specific measures to identify, reduce, or avoid undesirable entries of mineral oil hydrocarbons, thereby enabling process and vulnerability analyses across the entire supply chain. The BLL's aim is to provide companies with a "tool" with the toolbox to responsibly examine appropriate measures.
