PFAS-Free
Packaging

Do you know if your packaging is contaminated from the harmful health hazard of migration from fluorocarbons containing PFOA, PFOH - PFAS)?

​

Contaminations of  'forever chemicals`, PFOA, PFOH, (PFAS) from fluorinated packaging materials are now a proven serious public health risk - & financial penalties are being aimed to be applied by way of international governmental regulations.

​

In support of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), we should all be working together in trying to ensure the eradication of PFAS from food & drink packaging supply chains.

​

​

If you know your packaging materials contain PFAS then Delipac can help!

If you don’t know, then we can still help & assist in alignment to Pan European PPWR (packaging toxicity & waste) rules.

​

'Per' or 'polyfluorinated alkyl' substances (PFAS) are a group of industrial chemicals, widely used in everything from carpets to cosmetics, cookware & food packaging.

 

PFAS has now become widely linked to major human health and environmental concerns.

​

PFAS substances are also associated with certain types of aqueous coatings & polymers, especially because of their robust barrier properties.

This problem emanates across a range of packaging materials endangering a risk of migration into packaged contents, particularly under heated conditions or when exposed to hot foods & drinks.

​

Delipac paperboard's robust grease & water barrier has been engineered to provide a Smart-Safe© renewable & inspired clean packaging solution - accompanied by impressive environmental certifications, verifying a genuine plastic-free & PFAS-free barrier, making it recyclable, compostable, & carbon balanced.
