The EU Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR) establishes the highest chemical restrictions for food-contact packaging materials that exist in the world today. All packaging materials that manufacturers plan to introduce into the EU market must meet stringent PFAS limits which include a maximum of 25 ppb for each individual PFAS and 250 ppb for all non-polymeric PFAS substances. Executives who develop regulatory strategies while protecting supply chain security and enabling market access need to understand that this deadline constitutes a major business operational safeguard which they must fulfill for their organizations.
The food packaging industry requires manufacturers and converters and global brands to test PFAS levels throughout their entire supplier network while maintaining complete testing documentation and Declaration of Conformity records. Compliance programs face operational risks because they require systems that can scale but they face challenges that lead to delays and data gaps which may result in denying access to the market.
Manufacturers who want to achieve future growth are implementing AI-powered compliance automation systems and supply chain visibility tools to handle their regulatory requirements and supplier documentation plus testing results for their entire packaging inventory. The systems enable organizations to remain prepared for audits while they decrease the need for employees to track regulatory requirements manually.
