Following a ban by several European Union (EU) Member States on food contact bamboo-melamine plastics, the European Commission has published the “EU enforcement action on food contact materials (FCM) made of bamboo ‘powder’.”

Importers of FCM made with bamboo powder have been required to submit an authorization dossier according to Regulation (EC) 1935/2004, the Food Contact Framework Regulation. The recent announcement stresses that food contact plastics can only be manufactured or imported into the EU if they have been produced using thoroughly assessed substances, such as additives, monomers and polymers, that are in accordance with Article 5 of Regulation (EU) 10/2011 (Union list, Annex I). FCM containing bamboo and other plant-based additives are not on this list and are therefore not authorized as legal.

Despite this, authorities are aware that several such products are still being made available. Between 2019 and March 2021, most RASFF (Rapid Alert System for Food and Feed) notifications for FCM containing bamboo fibers related to the unauthorized use of bamboo additives as a filler. Alongside this, many products are mislabelled as being made of 100% bamboo.

To respond to this, stakeholders, including the EC, Member States and the EU Food Fraud Network, agreed to launch an enforcement action plan in May 2021. The aim of this is to:

• Ensure non-compliant products are rejected at borders
• Incorrectly declared plastic product tax duties are recovered
• Businesses are reminded about the illegality of these products, including support via e-platforms
• Consumers are made aware of health and other issues

The EC has stated it will assist EU Member States in ensuring these products are no longer placed on the EU market.

Stakeholders are reminded that Brazil’s new ordinance for pacifiers came into force on August 2, 2021.

Issued by the Brazilian Ministry of Economy/National Institute of Metrology, Quality and Technology (INMETRO) on July 16, 2021, Ordinance No. 301 of July 12, 2021, details the consolidated conformity assessment requirements and conformity identification seal for pacifiers.

Provisions included in the ordinance include:

• Establishing:
  • Annex I – consolidated legislation for pacifiers in the form of conformity assessment requirements
  • Annex II – specifications for the Conformity Identification Seal
• Conformity assessments must be carried out by a Product Certification Body (Organismo de Certificação de Produto, OCP), established in Brazil and accredited by INMETRO
• Suppliers must choose Certification Model 1b (batch test) or 5 for conformity assessment requirements – the Certificate of Conformity (CoC) for Model 5 is valid for four years
• Certified products that have been issued must be evaluated against the new ordinance at the next evaluation – the requirements related to the validity of the certificate and the timing of maintenance assessments (Annex I to the Ordinance) will apply to certificates already issued by consideration of their issue date

Stakeholders should be aware that this Ordinance entered into force on August 2, 2021. Pacifier suppliers have until December 31, 2021, to adapt the layout of the Conformity Identification Seal (Annex II).
