On March 24, 2022, the European Union published a draft amendment to the Regulation on Recycled Plastics for Food Contact, which will replace the current EU Regulation EU 282/2008, which was established in 2008
.
The current regulation sets out specific requirements for the recycling process to ensure that recycled plastic materials and articles intended for food contact comply with the requirements of Article 3 of Regulation (EC) No 1935/2004, but it does not apply to all recycling technologies
.
Because at the time of regulation, only a few recycling technologies existed, and these technologies were not necessarily applicable to all recycling scenarios
.
The specific amendments to the draft regulations are as follows:

The definition of "new technology" is contained in Article 3, which states that "any recycling technology whose applicability has not been decided under Article 15 or 16 shall be deemed to be new technology for the purposes of this Regulation"
.
In addition, the reference to "potential residual contamination" in Article 3 has been removed, and Article 5 updated the labeling requirements
.
The regulations also set out requirements regarding corporate monitoring and reporting
.
