The regulation sets a transition period from January 20, 2025, to January 20, 2028, with specific intermediate deadlines.
New Box has chosen to act early: starting with orders received from October 1, 2025, our production will already be compliant, with items manufactured in BPA-NIA / PFAS-NIA.
• BPA (Bisphenol A): a chemical that has been used for decades across industrial sectors, including the internal coatings of metal containers. Its use is now severely restricted due to potential health and environmental risks.
• PFAS (per- and poly-fluoroalkyl substances): a family of compounds known for their resistance to heat, water, and grease, but increasingly under scrutiny due to their environmental persistence and possible health impacts.
• NIA (Non Intentionally Added): indicates that BPA or PFAS are not intentionally added to the new coatings and formulations, ensuring safer solutions that comply with the latest regulations.
With this decision, New Box ensures:
• Early compliance with European regulations.
• Greater safety of our products.
• Unchanged quality, features, and performance, with the possibility of further improvements thanks to next-generation materials.
Completing the transition well ahead of schedule sends a strong, clear signal to the market:
New Box aims to be a benchmark for safety, reliability, and sustainability.
Our clients can rely on compliant products, with no compromise on quality or performance.
For any clarification, our commercial and technical team remains at your disposal.
