Submissions on Post-Consumer Recycled (PCR) Plastics for Food-Contact Articles

This is a list of submissions for which FDA issued a favorable opinion on the suitability of a specific process for producing post-consumer recycled (PCR) plastic to be used in the manufacturing of food-contact articles. The list includes the date of our no objection letter (NOL), the company that made the request, the subject plastic, whether the recycling process is physical or chemical, and limitations on the conditions of use for the recycled plastic. Because the agency is currently developing a formal policy on the use of recycled plastics in contact with food, the decisions set forth in these opinion letters may need to be modified due to future deliberations on this matter. Additional information on the safety of recycled plastics in Food Packaging is available on the Recycled Plastics in Food Packaging page. Records shown on this page: This page is a partial listing of all records in the database. Additional pages/records are available for selection at the bottom of the page. To obtain all the No Objection Letter (NOL) for a recycled plastic, select the date of the NOL to reveal the additional information. To view all records in the database select the All button at the bottom of the page. To search for a specific food ingredient, enter the term in the Filter box and select Show Items to display only those records that contain the selected term. Search Criteria Sort by:   Recy.
