In the EU and UK, materials that contact food must meet strict food-safety frameworks (EU food-contact materials rules, assessed by bodies such as EFSA). Certified food-grade egg inks are formulated to comply with these requirements.
Using compliant ink protects consumers, satisfies retailer and border inspections, and supports exports into Europe. It also avoids the hidden safety risks of uncertified industrial inks.
Request the supplier’s EU compliance documentation and batch test reports before shipping coded eggs into European markets.
Why SHICAI: Every SHICAI printer — including the Small Character Egg Printer — uses food-grade ink intended for direct food-contact surfaces, with batch records available on request.
