Sweden Moves Toward BPA Ban in Can Linings
Swedish government officials have reportedly asked food processors and
packaging companies to submit alternatives to bisphenol A (BPA) in food and
beverage can linings. The Swedish Chemicals Agency and the National Food
Administration want the companies to submit plans by the end of 2011 and
manufacturers to outline when BPA alternatives would be available to the
food industry. See CN Brewing, April 20, 2011.
