Food-Safe Wooden Boards, Factory-Direct — LFGB & FDA
What food-contact compliance actually requires for wooden boards — LFGB, FDA and the documentation that survives a customer audit.
Bolang Solutions is a trading company. We chose the model on purpose: it lets us buy across many factories instead of selling you one production line, inspect goods we don't manufacture, and put our own name on every export document as seller of record. The industry's trading-company horror stories are concealment stories — so we run the opposite playbook: registered scope public, address public, and a standing invitation to verify us on gsxt.gov.cn the same way we verify suppliers.

On shipments we trade, the commercial invoice, packing list and bill of lading carry Bolang as seller of record. One counterparty, legally on the hook, answering in English.
Verify us the way we verify suppliers — our registered name, address and Unified Social Credit Code are published on this site; look us up on gsxt.gov.cn.
"Food-safe" on a listing is a claim; LFGB and FDA compliance are documents. For wooden boards the distance between the two is exactly where import problems live. Our board programs ship with the compliance basis stated per market — which tests, which components, which papers in the pack.
What compliance means for wood
| Market | Regime | What is actually assessed |
|---|---|---|
| EU / DE | LFGB §30/31 framework | The finished article: wood, finish oils, any glue lines — migration and sensory testing |
| US | FDA food-contact | Materials and coatings in contact with food |
| UK | UK food-contact regs | Mirrors the EU logic post-transition |
The component most buyers forget: the finish. A compliant species with a non-documented oil is a non-compliant board. Ours ship with the finish named and papered.
What you receive
Compliance basis stated on the specification · test documentation for the destination market, with the scope agreed per programme · labelling guidance so the claim on the packaging matches the paper in the file.
The audit question that catches sellers: "show me the test report for this SKU's finish." Our answer is a document, dated, in the pack — which is the entire difference between a claim and compliance.
Common questions
Species alone is never the answer — the finished article passes or fails as a whole. Acacia boards with documented food-contact oils routinely pass; the papers make it true for your SKU.
Laminated constructions bring the adhesive into scope — one more reason the spec sheet names it.
Overlapping but not identical regimes; we scope the set per destination so you pay for what your market checks.
