Reg EU 2023/1428

Following a recent assessment by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), the food additive E 471, mono- and diglycerides of fatty acids, has undergone a reevaluation that resulted in new limits for contaminants.

Regulation (EU) No. 2023/1428 introduces significant revisions to the annex of Regulation (EU) No. 231/2012.
This change aims to ensure greater food safety and provides differentiated grace periods to facilitate the transition, ensure a smooth and safe shift towards compliance with the new standards, and allow manufacturers and distributors to adapt to the new limits without significant disruptions in product availability.
Interested parties can access the full text of Regulation (EU) No. 2023/1428 on the official website of the European Union.
