Food safety is a prerequisite of producing food and drink products in Europe. If it's not safe, it's not food.
Food and drink producers actively participate in the safety evaluation of food additives by:
Working with the European Food Safety Authority to establish appropriate usage levels of food additives
Using additives strictly within their conditions of approval following a rigorous safety evaluation by EFSA
Working with additives producers whenever any technical information is requested by EFSA for the safety evaluation of the specific substance.
