Migration limits for lead, cadmium and possibly other metals from ceramic and vitreous food contact materials
Food safety
This initiative will establish lower limits for lead and cadmium from ceramic and vitreous food contact materials and possibly set limits for other heavy metals. The available evidence indicates that these limits are presently too high and do not adequately protect human health. The initiative also aims to harmonise the legislation for glass and enamelled metals.
