\"\"<\/p>\n

At the beginning of September, the new regulation (EU) 1245\/2020 has been published, amending the well-known (EU) 10\/2011 on plastic materials intended to come into contact with food. \u00a0\u00a0This amendment contains many binding changes regarding migration testing on food contact materials (FCM).<\/p>\n

Among others, a new limit for primary aromatic amines (PAA) is published, which is now set at 2 ppb (0,002 mg\/kg food). This new limit sets a new base for packaging analysis<\/a><\/span>,<\/span> since the limit of quantification of the testing method is now changed.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, in Annex 2 of regulation (EU) 10\/2011 table 1 is added, which contains all the specific migration limits (SML) of 24 metalls (previously, only 9 metals had an SML). With this addition, packaging producers are now even more restricted on the\u00a0 materials they are allowed to use for their plastic articles.<\/p>\n

Last, but not least, a new limit is set for titanium dioxide (TiO2), which is the substance responsible for providing the white color on some packaging materials in the market.<\/p>\n

The new amendment enters into force within September and all new packages that come out to the market after 23rd<\/sup> March 2021 should respect it.<\/p>\n
