Keller and Heckman’s internationally recognized Food Packaging team is pleased to invite you to our 27th Annual Food Packaging Law Seminar, taking place October 27–28, 2026, in Arlington, Virginia.

Join colleagues from across the food-contact industry for this comprehensive program designed for regulatory, scientific, and legal professionals seeking to stay current on the latest developments affecting food packaging materials and sustainability initiatives. Led by Keller and Heckman’s experienced team of attorneys, chemists, and toxicologists, the seminar will provide practical insights into the evolving legal and regulatory landscape in the United States and around the world.

Participants will gain practical insights into FDA food-contact regulations, GRAS developments, customer assurance considerations, GMPs, adulteration and recalls, FDA’s post-market review program, chemicals of concern, and packaging-related litigation.
