Implementation of Food Contact Materials Regulation (EC) 1935/2004

This procedure evaluates how the EU regulation on materials that touch food is being applied. It aims to ensure that packaging and kitchenware do not release harmful substances into food, protecting public health and ensuring a high level of food safety across the Union.

This affects food producers, packaging manufacturers, and consumers. The review may lead to stricter safety standards for plastics, ceramics, and metals used in food contact.
