Halopolymer PTFE grades meet EU requirements for the food industry

The Halopolymer PTFE grades F-4 and F4-D were tested in the laboratory of SGS Multilab, France, and have been awarded with certificates of compliance with European Directive No. 10/2011, which sets the requirements for polymers intended for contact with food.

The value of possible harmful substances migration has been determined during the test. Both specific migration of hazardous components (tetrafluoroethylene) and the total migration (i. e., the total volume of all substances that can get to the food out of the polymer) were measured.
