Understand the German Ink Ordinance before it becomes mandatory
What changes in 2027, what converters must prove, and where compliance risks lie – all explained by industry experts.
The regulatory framework governing printing inks for food contact and indirect food contact applications is undergoing a fundamental shift. With the enforcement of the Swiss Ordinance in 2026 and the upcoming German Ink Ordinance in 2027, converters are moving from voluntary guidance and marketing claims toward mandatory, evidence-based compliance.
Do you need to know more? In our live webinar, Mr. Thomas Gude, President of the Swiss Society for Food Chemistry, and Mr. Patrick Graber, Marketing Director for PL Labels at BOBST, will provide a clear, scientific overview of the actual regulatory requirements, how they differ from previous “low‑migration” approaches, and what are the greatest compliance risks today for converters.
