As long carbon chain oil-repellent, Bisphenol A, phthalic esters, optical brighteners, heavy metals exceeded kettle and other food contact safety problem impact on human health and environmental safety, the supervision of food contact material becomes increasingly stringent all over the world.
Earlier this year, US FDA announced that it would revise the food additive regulations to prohibit those which contain monoethanolamine and diethanolamine (Diethanolamine salts of mono-and bis), FCS valeric anhydride, perfluoroalkyl-substituted phosphorus acid ester (FCSs) use as water and oil repellent in paper and paperboard. Another example is the controversy about bisphenol A, which caused human health problems in recent years. After a series of risk assessments, the EU posted G / SPS / N / EG / 159 Notice to WTO on March 14, 2016, the Notice said EU would revise the specific migration limit values (SML) of BPA in plastic regulation, and this limit would also apply to coatings and varnishes. While in China, with the enacted of "Food Safety Law" in last October, the updating of regulations on food industry are in full swing. In the field of food contact materials, there have been new product standards, and the industry is struggling to wait for the release of the new version of GB9685. For other countries such as South Korea also released "the Special regulations on import food safety management measures ", which makes foreign manufacturers who exported food and food contact materials to South Korea must be registered first.
