company news about PPWR and PP Food Packaging Testing What European Buyers Should Know

As packaging regulations receive increasing attention in Europe, food packaging sourcing is moving beyond basic requirements such as price, size and printing.

Buyers are also paying closer attention to material information, test reports and technical documentation.

For PP food packaging bags, heavy metals and PFAS testing can be important parts of the product documentation requested during sourcing.

BRISHPACK recently completed relevant testing for PP packaging bags.

The test results included:

• Lead, Cadmium, Chromium(VI) and Mercury — Pass
• Any PFAS by targeted PFAS analysis — Pass
• Sum of PFAS by targeted PFAS analysis — Pass

The test report also confirmed that the tested items complied with Regulation (EU) 2025/40.

For European packaging buyers, this type of testing documentation can provide useful product information when evaluating a packaging supplier.

At the same time, a test report applies to the products and test items covered by that report. Packaging buyers should therefore consider the specific product, materials, application and applicable regulatory requirements when determining the documentation needed for a particular packaging project.

For packaging manufacturers, preparing material information, test reports and technical documentation in advance can also make the sourcing process clearer and more efficient.

BRISHPACK specializes in customized food packaging bag manufacturing, providing paper and plastic packaging solutions based on customers' product specifications and packaging requirements.
