The food and beverage industry is heavily regulated to ensure containers, industrial process components, and other parts comply with safety standards. As such, manufacturers use food-grade plastic materials for part design and construction, including plastic injection molding. Plastic injection processes can create complex, identical goods with a low risk of error. This makes plastic an increasingly popular alternative to metal, with specific advantages regarding food and beverage safety.

Industry Regulations/Certifications
Several regulatory bodies govern what food and beverage manufacturers—as well as plastic injection molding companies—need to be aware of to stay compliant. Some of the requirements and regulatory institutions to keep in mind include:

BPA-free construction
FDA certification
FMA-safe regulations
GMA-SAFE
ISO 13485 cleanroom certification
ISO 9001:2015
Hazardous Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) compliance
Non-toxic guidelines
The Rodon Group ensures compliance with all applicable regulations and compliance standards. In particular, all food-grade parts are produced with HACCP compliance in mind. These standards focus on identifying, controlling, and eradicating all chemical, microbiological, and physical hazards. This focus minimizes the risk of food-borne diseases. It also increases consumer confidence in the safety, and therefore value, of our food-grade plastic components. We adhere to these standards for both final food and beverage products and the equipment used to manufacture them.
