Extraction solvents in food and food ingredients (recast)

This procedure updates the regulations regarding solvents used to extract oils and other ingredients from food. It aims to ensure that the chemicals used in these industrial processes do not pose a risk to human health and that food safety standards are consistently maintained across the EU.

This will affect food manufacturers and chemical suppliers. It ensures that only approved solvents are used and sets strict limits on residue levels in final food products.
