Inks, Dyes and Pigments Testing-Fare Labs

Inks, dyes, and pigments are essential components in food packaging and various consumer products, playing a pivotal role in visual appeal, branding, and product communication. Beyond their aesthetic contribution, these substances often serve as protective barriers against external factors such as UV radiation, temperature, moisture, and microbial contamination, helping preserve product integrity and shelf life.
However, synthetic inks and dyes can pose serious health hazards due to the risk of chemical leaching, contamination, and the presence of toxic substances. Adverse effects may include allergic, reactions, carcinogenicity, genetic mutations, and neurological disorders. Ensuring the safety and compliance of these materials is therefore critical.
