The European Commission presents a draft regulation aiming to restrict the use of bisphenol A (BPA) and other bisphenols in materials and articles intended for food contact.
The proposal follows updated findings from the European Food Safety Authority, identifying adverse effects on human health.
The draft seeks to amend existing regulations, prohibit BPA in specific applications, and set stringent limits due to health concerns.
The Commission emphasizes the need for regulatory updates to align with the Authority’s recommendations and minimize consumer exposure to BPA through food contact materials.
