Creation of a European Metrology Network for Safe and Sustainable Food

  • Safe food is a prerequisite for good human health, however currently almost one in ten people in the world fall ill after eating contaminated food. National food safety authorities need to be able to manage food safety risks along the entire food chain. The Official Controls Regulation (EU) 2017/625 was put in place to ensure that food and feed law stipulates the need for validated analytical methods. However, whilst method development for food control and proficiency testing are well established by European Union Reference Laboratories and National Reference Laboratories, validation of the measurements involved, certified reference materials and internationally recognised calibration and measurement capabilities are currently often (?) lacking. This may erode trust in the accuracy of the measurements. This poster presents Food-MetNet, a coordinated preparatory initiative to establish the European Metrology Network for Safe and Sustainable Food, recently approved by the EuropeanSafe food is a prerequisite for good human health, however currently almost one in ten people in the world fall ill after eating contaminated food.

This may erode trust in the accuracy of the measurements. This poster presents Food-MetNet, a coordinated preparatory initiative to establish the European Metrology Network for Safe and Sustainable Food, recently approved by the European Association of National Metrology Institutes (EURAMET). Food-MetNet aims to establish an ongoing dialogue between the metrology community, reference laboratories and regulatory bodies, in order to (i) identify stakeholders’ needs, (ii) develop a sustainable knowledge-sharing programme and web-based platform for stakeholders and (iii) develop roadmaps and a strategic research agenda. Improved access to more reliable and accurate food safety measurements will enable reference laboratories to more confidently and effectively compare their measurement results and support accreditation. This is particularly important where national food safety authorities need to assess potential new contaminants, novel food ingredients and newly emerging food risks, and new measurements methods may be required as well as input into new documentary standards. The activities for sustainable food intend to boost the activity within the "EU green deal framework" to reduce food waste and losses, and the development of standards and methods that allow for the reuse of food waste. The support to new business opportunities and innovation will allow increasing the market competitiveness of EU food industries and the valorisation of waste by reducing environmental impacts.zeige mehrzeige weniger
