Is There a New French Positive List for Food-Contact Colorants?

Question

Is there a new French Positive List for colorants approved for use in plastics that come into contact with food?

Answer

No, we consider there is currently no new legally binding positive list for colorants approved for use in plastic food-contact materials and articles in France.  Please refer to our response to question (found here) for further information regarding the regulation of colorants/pigments intended for use in food-contact plastics in France and, more generally, in the EU.
