• A Tailored Risk Assessment for Food Contact Materials.pdf

  Uploaded 11 Apr 2022

  FEICA co-signs 'Tailored Risk Assessment for Food Contact Materials' (FCM)

  Numerous associations propose an approach where substances undergo a “one substance - one assessment”, consisting of a first step “one substance- one hazard assessment” in which the hazard is defined by the intrinsic properties of the substance. This should be followed by a second step of a “FCM specific risk assessment and management” for food contact materials and articles, in which the risk resulting from potential oral exposure is assessed. We believe that EFSA is best positioned to provide such specific FCM assessment due to their extensive experience in food safety-related matters, and in the assessment of substances in dietary exposure.

  Uploaded 25 Nov 2021

  FEICA co-signs 'Joint Statement on the 2nd meeting of the High-Level roundtable on enforcement of EU Chemical Legislation'

  Enforcement of EU chemicals safety and environmental legislation will play a central role in implementing the European Green Deal agenda and the Chemicals Strategy for Sustainability (CSS). This statement emphasises that no matter how ambitious the legislation is on paper, it will never fulfil the level of protection of consumers and workers it has set out to offer, if not properly enforced.

  BASA Advisory Note on UKREACH for EU suppliers into GB market

  Lorna Williams, BASA Executive Officer and General Secretary, has shared an advisory note for FEICA members on UKREACH and the implications for EU suppliers to GB customers. As with EU REACH most polymers are currently exempt from UKREACH registration obligations, but the monomers and chemical substances used to manufacture polymers are required to be registered if imported into GB above 1T per annum (the same as for EU REACH). BASA is producing templates, guides, and advice to BASA member companies, and these are available on the Members-only area of the BASA website. For more information on UKREACH or BASA membership, please visit the BASA Website.
