Addressing sustainability in food contact materials
The twin drivers of safety and sustainability are creating ever more demanding challenges for FCM manufacturers, who must comply with rigorous EU and national food contact regulations, as well as a range of sustainability-related legislation.
With the focus of FCM regulations continuing to shift onto the final article and priorization of substances, the conference will provide updates on EU and national regulatory activity in various materials, substances and applications, as well as providing practical perspectives on how legislation is being managed and implemented by downstream users.
The two-day agenda will also explore sustainability in the context of FCMs, including the impact of key EU legislation relating to the circular economy, plus the latest policy initiatives for the sustainable manufacture, use, reuse, recycling and disposal of FCMs, including materials that are compostable, biodegradable or recyclable.
The conference will help regulatory professionals from across the food packaging, kitchenware and food processing equipment supply chains navigate this complexity. Industry experts will offer knowledge and guidance through a series of informative presentations, panel discussions and interactive Q&As.
Full agenda and speakers to be released soon. In the meantime, please see the agenda from the previous conference here.
