A look at the German BfR??s three recent recommendations for natural and synthetic rubber commodities. 
- (1888PressRelease) October 06, 2021 – SGS, the world??s leading testing, inspection and certification company, has published a summary of three recommendations issued by the German Federal Institute for Risk Assessment (Bundesinstitut für Risikobewertung, BfR) in mid-2021. The three recommendations are interrelated and cover natural and synthetic rubber commodities, including those that are intended to come into contact with food.
The three recommendations are:
??Recommendation XXI ??Commodities based on natural and synthetic rubber??
??Recommendation XXI/1 ??Commodities based on natural and synthetic rubber in contact with food??
??Recommendation XXI/2 ??Special consumer goods made of natural and synthetic rubber and lattices made of natural and synthetic rubber (formerly special category)??These three recommendations supersede the 2011 iteration of Recommendation XXI ??Commodities based on natural and synthetic rubber??. Stakeholders should also be aware that a separate Recommendation XXI/3 ??Consumer goods made of cross-linked thermoplastic elastomer?? is planned for food contact thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs).
These recommendations should be considered effective immediately.
SGS has published a summary of these three recommendations to help suppliers of natural and synthetic rubber commodities understand their requirements. To read these summaries, view SGS??s original SafeGuard 132/21.
