A partir du 20 janvier, le perturbateur endocrinien ne doit plus entrer en contact avec des aliments en Europe. L’UE a mis dix ans pour s’aligner sur la position de la France, qui avait banni la molécule en 2015.
After nearly 25 years of debate, Europe has officially banned the use of bisphenol A (BPA) in food containers starting January 20th.
This decision stems from BPA's classification as a dangerous endocrine disruptor, meaning it can interfere with the body's hormones.
The ban aims to eliminate BPA from a wide range of products that come into contact with food, including containers, bottles, can linings, and water pipes, as these are the primary sources of BPA exposure for the public.
The widespread presence of BPA in various products has made it a subject of intense scientific scrutiny and regulatory concern.
