Though China's food safety law was introduced into the scope of food safety in the food safety act of 2009, which was implemented in 2009, the safety problem of food packaging has not attracted the attention of the whole society. In recent years, with the improvement of consumers' awareness of safety and the strengthening of state supervision, food packaging has been gradually paid attention to.

The food safety act as a framework law effectively and effectively built a barrier for China's food safety, and pointed out the direction for subsequent targeted instructions. "QS" quality and safety, which is made up of blue Q and white S, is a pass of the food quality and safety market access system formulated by the State Administration of quality supervision, inspection and quarantine. Only through inspection products can the QS market entry sign be applied to the packaging. In order to strengthen the safety of food packaging, the State Quality Inspection Administration (AQSIQ) extended QS to plastic packaging, containers, tools and other products for food in 2006. As a result, the QS is not just for the food itself, but also for food packaging. It is equivalent to the European Cup fork symbol. Germany's knife and fork sign indicates that the product has been approved by the health supervision department and the national quality supervision department, and the quality is qualified, which ensures the health of consumers.

However, in comparison, our food packaging material manufacturers have vague understanding of the safety of packaging materials, lack of attention and weak sense of law. For example, China's current production of melamine tableware manufacturers have more than 1000, but it can get less than 100 QS. At the same time, Gansu potato chips packaging bag incident and child Poison Bottle incident and other food safety risks caused by food packaging continue to stimulate consumers' fragile nerves. Therefore, improving the safety awareness of food packaging in the whole society, strengthening the inspection and supervision of food packaging materials, and strengthening the industry self-discipline of food packaging enterprises are imperative.
