24 Oct 2023 --- California’s attorney general Rob Bonta has issued an enforcement advisory letter to food packaging and cookware manufacturers and distributors, notifying them of their legal duty to disclose PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) in their products. Lawmakers in California, US, passed a bill (A.B. 1200), which came into force this year, banning PFAS substances from paper, paperboard and plant-based food packaging and utensils and paper straws. New York State also banned PFAS in food packaging materials at the same time.
