EU Bans PFAS in Food Packaging
Starting tomorrow, Wednesday, the European Union will implement a ban on adding chemical "PFAS" substances to food packaging, according to the new regulations concerning packaging and packaging waste. These regulations impose strict restrictions on manufacturers and importers at all stages of the supply chain. The ban aims to reduce the use of "PFAS" compounds in packaging and to ensure enhanced testing and compliance procedures. It applies to all packaging products circulating in the European market, including those manufactured before the regulation’s enforcement, if they exceed the permitted limits. This step is part of the implementation of European Regulation No. 2025/40, which came into effect in February 2025, and it stands as one of the strictest global restrictions on these substances.
