Food & Agri

Food & Agri is a highly productive and innovative sector. It is a sector that will face enormous challenges and opportunities in the coming years. Social themes such as climate, energy and biodiversity play a leading role. Smarter and sustainable food production requires new technology.

Additive Manufacturing can make an enormous contribution to this. Think of 3D Foodprinting for the future, but certainly also the technological solutions in the Agri and Foodtech sectors. Such as machine parts, packaging and prototypes. And of course all in accordance with the correct guidelines, such as the EC 1935/2004.

Foodtech

To supply a food-safe 3D printed product, the material must be suitable according to EC 1935/2004 EU legislation and produced according to EC directive 2023/2006 (Good Manufacturing Process). The material is thus safe for the production of goods for consumption purposes or may come into contact with food.

The processes at Oceanz are designed to meet these regulations. The processes are included in the quality system and validated by external accredited parties. These testing institutions will adhere to various government-imposed risk tolerances and approved substances.
