The FDA and Congress are signaling a major shift in how food contact materials (FCMs) are reviewed, authorized and monitored in the US, moving towards a more systematic, risk-based approach to chemical safety. At the same time, Canada is reviewing its food contact regulations to strengthen oversight of packaging chemicals and align with new requirements driven by its circular plastics economy. Companies should prepare for stricter standards and growing pressure to adopt safer alternatives, which will create even more complexity for regulatory professionals. 

Join us for the ninth edition of Food Contact Regulations North America where industry leaders and regulatory experts will come together to explore the most pressing challenges and hot topics.
