AI agent for packaging engineers
Food Contact Compliance Document Agent
Every food-contact material in a package has a valid, current declaration before release
What it does
Packaging materials that touch food need supplier declarations, and they are missing or outdated for many materials. This agent lists the materials in each package and checks the declarations on file for each. It requests missing ones from the suppliers and checks the returned text against the rules, such as the right regulation, the right material and a valid date. If a declaration fails, it requests a correction and checks again. It marks each package as ready or blocked. The engineer approves releases. Edge case: a declaration covers the film but not the adhesive in the laminate, so the agent requests a separate one.
How it works
Follow the arrows from top to bottom. The orange dashed arrow is the loop: when a check fails, the agent goes back and tries again.

How it decides
A declaration is valid when it names the right material, supplier, regulation and use, and its date is current. Packages with any invalid declaration stay blocked.
- Treat a declaration over 24 months old as expired
- Require coverage of every layer, ink and adhesive
- Block release with any missing declaration
- Chase suppliers every 7 days
