PFAS and food: an informative webinar
Since January 2023, new legislation is in force for the maximum amount of PFOS, PFOA, PFNA, PFHxS and the sum of these 4 PFAS in fish, shellfish, meat and eggs. During the webinar, our specialists from Normec Groen Agro Control told more about everything surrounding PFAS and food.
Recommendation 2022/1431 of the European Commission contains indicative values for milk, among other things. When these values are exceeded, you must be able to trace the source of the contamination. As an entrepreneur, it is important to prepare for this. For the milk sector, it is important to know what is in your end product and what its potential source is. That's why PFAS analyses of soil, water and packaging materials are also essential.
The societal impact of PFAS
In the media, you increasingly see reports about PFAS. Think, for example, of the presence of PFAS in eggs or the coverage of excessive exposure to PFAS through our food. There is growing concern among consumers, as well as producers and civil society organizations. Because of the potential health risks, PFAS have been on the agenda of policy makers and the general public in recent years.
