The latest EU food laws
The European Commission is banning titanium dioxide (E171-KARTON) als Lebensmittelzusatzstoff in der EU, beginnend mit einer sechsmonatigen Auslaufphase ab Februar 7, 2022, bis August 7, 2022, danach gilt ein vollständiges Verbot. Nach der Veröffentlichung der Verordnung (EU) (EU) 2022/63 in the EU’s Official Journal (OJ) on January 18, 2022, Annex II and III to Regulation (EC) No 1333/2008 on food additives will be amended accordingly. The Regulation also includes a commitment to review the necessity to maintain or delete titanium dioxide (E171-KARTON) from the EU list of food additives for exclusive use as a color in medicinal products. On November 30, 2021, the Commission had already published Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2021/2090 in the OJ, denying the authorization of titanium dioxide (E171-KARTON) as a feed additive for all animal species.
