DUCC Comments to CASG-Polymers on Criteria for Polymers Requiring Registration (PRR)
FEICA, as member of the DUCC Polymers working group, has contributed with comments on the PRR criteria to the drafting of a paper submitted to CARACAL.
This guideline has been provided by FEICA, Paper & Packaging Working Group. It is primarily aimed at FEICA members and the members of its national association members who are manufacturing adhesives for the food packaging market in the EU. In addition, this guideline can be of interest to users of food contact adhesives such as packaging converters and their downstream users as well as other stakeholders, such as legislators.
In this guidance document, FEICA aims to provide clarification on how to risk assess mineral oil hydrocarbons in adhesives and, in case testing is needed, how to perform the test and evaluate the results. A decision tree is also included to allow customers to evaluate an adhesive for its intended application.
The adhesive and sealant industry is eager to attract more experts and graduates to specialise in adhesion and bonding. The aim is to encourage young scientists to explore the whole spectrum of our sector and for existing professionals to enhance and refresh their knowledge.
