It also affects supplier qualification, shipment timing, customs release, technical documentation and the way old inventory is managed.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The most important update is that the European Commission issued practical guidance in June 2026.

This can include empty packaging materials and finished packaging, depending on how and when they are placed on the EU market.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Typical paper-based formats affected may include:<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li>Paper cups, soup cups and ice cream containers<\/li>\n<li>Paper bowls, <a rel=\"nofollow\" title=\"food tray\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sure-paper.com\/food-tray\/\" target=\"_blank\">food tray<\/a>s and takeaway boxes<\/li>\n<li>Greaseproof paper, burger wraps and sandwich paper<\/li>\n<li>French fry bags, bakery liners and deli wrapping paper<\/li>\n<li>PE-, PLA- or dispersion-coated food paperboard<\/li>\n<li>Printed or converted food-contact packaging imported into the EU<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The rule applies to packaging placed on the market in the EU, regardless of whether the material was manufactured inside or outside the Union. Overseas suppliers therefore need to support EU customers with accurate, product-specific documentation.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>The Three PFAS Concentration Limits<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Article 5(5) sets three separate thresholds.

To support enforcement from 12 August 2026, the Commission recommends a stepwise approach based on currently available analytical capabilities.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Step 1 &mdash; Total fluorine screening&nbsp;<\/strong>Measure total fluorine (TF). When TF is below 50 mg\/kg, the sample could be considered compliant under the Commission&rsquo;s recommended enforcement approach.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Step 2 &mdash; Distinguish organic and inorganic fluorine&nbsp;<\/strong>If TF exceeds 50 mg\/kg, methods such as pyrolysis-GC\/MS can be used to determine whether the fluorine is organic or inorganic. If organic fluorine is below 50 mg\/kg, the sample could be considered compliant.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Step 3 &mdash; Targeted PFAS and precursor analysis&nbsp;<\/strong>Direct TOP analysis is recommended to assess the 25 &micro;g\/kg individual limit and the 250 &micro;g\/kg sum limit.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Why this matters<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A total fluorine result above 50 mg\/kg does not automatically prove that PFAS itself exceeds 50 ppm. Buyers should review the laboratory method, the organic\/inorganic fluorine distinction and the targeted PFAS results before drawing a final conclusion.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>&ldquo;No Intentionally Added PFAS&rdquo; Is Useful &mdash; but Not Enough<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A supplier declaration confirming that PFAS was not intentionally added is an important first document. However, it is not the same as evidence that the finished packaging complies with all three legal thresholds.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">PFAS or fluorine signals may come from multiple parts of the supply chain, including base paper, recycled fibres, barrier chemicals, processing aids, inks, adhesives or secondary converting. For this reason, buyers should connect every declaration and test report to the exact product grade, material structure and intended application.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A strong compliance package should show:<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li>The exact product name, grade, grammage and coating structure<\/li>\n<li>Sample identification and the date of testing<\/li>\n<li>The laboratory methods and reporting limits used<\/li>\n<li>A clear statement on intentionally added PFAS<\/li>\n<li>Traceability to the relevant mill, coating line or production batch<\/li>\n<li>Change-control procedures when raw materials or production routes change<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Which Paper Packaging Products Need the Most Attention?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Greaseproof and Oil-Resistant Wrapping Paper<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Historically, some high-grease-resistance papers used fluorinated treatments to improve oil holdout. Many mills have now reformulated these grades, but buyers should not assume that every product described as greaseproof or high-KIT is automatically PFAS-free or PPWR-ready.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">For relevant applications, review <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.surepaperpak.com\/greaseproof-paper\/\">PFAS-free greaseproof paper<\/a> by required KIT level, food type, contact time, temperature and printing or converting process.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ecdn6.globalso.com\/upload\/p\/978\/image_other\/2026-07\/sure-paper-ppwr-pfas-food-packing-3.png\" alt=\"sure-paper-ppwr-pfas-food-packing-3.png\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Coated Cupstock and Food Paperboard<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Paper cups, bowls and containers may use PE, PLA, clay or water-based barrier structures. The coating choice affects liquid resistance, sealing, converting efficiency and end-of-life options. PFAS compliance is one requirement, but it does not replace food-contact, migration, recyclability or packaging-minimisation assessments.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Recycled-Content and Printed Packaging<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Commission guidance states that there is no exception for packaging containing recycled material. Recycled fibres and complex printed structures may require additional attention because upstream material history and secondary chemicals can be more difficult to trace.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Does PE-Coated Paper Solve PFAS Compliance?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">PE-coated paper remains a mature and practical barrier structure for many cups, bowls and takeaway packaging applications. Extruded polyethylene normally provides moisture and sealing performance without relying on the fluorinated grease-resistance treatments historically associated with certain papers.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">However, PE coating should not be presented as an automatic PPWR compliance guarantee. The full structure still needs to be assessed, including the base paper, PE resin, processing aids, printing inks, adhesives and the final converted article. A compliant coating does not compensate for an unverified base material or secondary conversion process.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Buyers comparing structures can review Sure Paper&rsquo;s PE coated cupstock paper and broader cupstock paper range, then validate the selected grade under actual forming, sealing and food-contact conditions.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Balanced sourcing principle<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Choose the barrier structure according to the final application first. Then verify PFAS, food-contact performance, converting compatibility, recyclability requirements and documentation as separate but connected approval steps.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Food Packaging Buyer Checklist Before Ordering<\/strong><\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<p><strong>Check<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td>\n<p><strong>What to Request<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td>\n<p><strong>Why It Matters<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<p><strong>1.

The PPWR refers to 50 ppm PFAS including polymeric PFAS. The Commission guidance recommends further work to distinguish organic and inorganic fluorine when total fluorine is above 50 mg\/kg.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Is a &ldquo;no intentionally added PFAS&rdquo; declaration enough?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">No. It is useful formulation evidence, but buyers should also assess laboratory results, product identity, reporting limits, traceability and the final packaging structure.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Is PE-coated paper automatically PPWR compliant?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">No. PE extrusion normally does not rely on fluorinated grease-resistance treatments, but the base paper, resin, additives, inks, adhesives and final converted packaging still need appropriate verification.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Can packaging produced before 12 August 2026 be imported later?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Production before the deadline does not create a general exemption. Food-contact packaging placed on the market after 12 August 2026 must comply. For imports, the Commission guidance identifies release for free circulation as the relevant timing point.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Does the restriction apply to recycled-content packaging?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Yes. The Commission guidance states that there is no exception for packaging containing recycled material.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Prepare the Compliance File Before the Shipment<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The PPWR PFAS restriction is now an immediate procurement issue, not a distant policy change. The strongest approach is to approve the material, documentation, production route and shipment timing together &mdash; before mass production and before goods reach the EU border.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">For food packaging buyers, the objective is not simply to obtain a certificate labelled &ldquo;PFAS-free.&rdquo; It is to build a traceable, product-specific compliance file that can withstand customer review, customs questions and future production changes.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Final CTA<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Send Sure Paper your food application, paper structure, GSM, roll or sheet size, monthly volume and target market.
