## Summary

The Food Standards Agency has awarded a contract for the project titled "FS900251 3D and 4D printing in the food system". The procurement process was completed, with Camrosh Limited winning the award. The contract is valued at £32,395 GBP and has a contract period starting from October 18, 2022, and ending on December 2, 2022. The procurement stage was an open procedure with an open threshold. The project falls under the services category and aims to explore emerging technologies impacting the UK food system.

This tender provides an opportunity for businesses, especially those in research and development services and related consultancy services, to engage with the Food Standards Agency and contribute to the assessment of 3D and 4D printing in the food system. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprise (VCSE) organisations are particularly suited to participate. The project aims to evaluate the potential risks and opportunities associated with these technologies, making it relevant for businesses interested in innovation within the food industry.

## Notice

The FSA has identified a number of emerging technologies that are likely to disrupt the food system, but more information is required to assess the impact on the FSA mission and its ability to achieve that. The recent report on emerging technologies considered most likely to have an impact on the UK food system and food safety over the coming decade has identified 3D and 4D printed foods to be one such emerging technology.
