"During the last few years, we've seen significant changes in food contact regulations particularly with the new EU regulation on recycled plastic materials.

Food contact regulations are constantly changing as new scientific innovations and discoveries emerge, and the EU regulators are currently reviewing the way the legislation works and may move onto produce harmonised legislation on new sustainable packaging materials and established material classes such as inks and papers. Also, we have seen the UK implement new arrangements for the registration of food contact substances in a post-Brexit environment.

For these reasons, it is vital for anyone in the industry to be fully up-to-date with the latest updates and legislation."
