The Confederation of European Paper Industries (CEPI) and the International Confederation of paper and board Converters in Europe (CITPA) have launched the voluntary "Industry Guideline for the Compliance of Paper & Board Materials and Articles for Food Contact".
The Guideline gives guidance to paper and board producers as well as institutions and public authorities in how to ensure that paper and board meets the quality standards appropriate to its intended use in food contact. This means it will not endanger human health by causing an unacceptable change in the food's composition or deterioration in the way the food tastes, looks, feels and smells.
CEPI will also publish a Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) for the industry, which describes a management system for those rules to be obeyed. GMP is not an optional bolton to the Guideline, but is required by Regulation 2023/2006, a general GMP requirement recently published by the European Commission.
