Key Benefits:
Regulation (EC) No 1935/2004 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 October 2004 on materials and articles intended to come into contact with food and repealing Directives 80 /590/EEC and 89 /109/EEC is the regulatory framework in force in all the countries of the European Union on materials and articles intended to come into contact with food.
This Regulation lays down in Article 11 that the Community authorisation of one or more substances must be carried out by means of a specific measure, but in the absence of specific measures, nothing prevents to maintain or adopt national provisions, provided that they are in accordance with the provisions of the Treaty establishing the European Community, as provided for in Article 6 thereof.
Annex I to the Regulation sets out a list of seventeen groups of materials and articles for which specific measures may be introduced, although there are currently only specific measures established at Community level. for plastic materials, regenerated cellulose films and ceramic objects, which means that Member States may maintain or adopt national provisions for the remaining fourteen groups of materials and articles.
The Resolution of 4 November 1982, by the Under-Secretary for Health, approving the positive list of substances intended for the manufacture of macromolecular compounds, the list of maximum migrations in tests for the disposal of some of them, the purity conditions for colouring matters used in the same products and the list of polymeric materials suitable for the manufacture of packaging and other utensils which may be in contact with food and food products, is a national provision applicable to the groups of the Annex I to the Regulation consisting of polymeric materials such as adhesives, rubber, ion exchange resins, silicones, waxes and varnishes and coatings.
These materials are very used today, mainly the varnishes and coatings that are used inside containers, tanks, etc., so it is necessary to update the resolution, whose only modification is produced by the Order of 3 July 1985 amending the positive list of substances intended for the manufacture of macromolecular compounds and the list of maximum migrations, in tests for disposal, of components of materials Polymer in contact with food. In the light of this, account should be taken of the evaluation work carried out by the Council of Europe in recent years for this type of material, in particular as regards coating on the basis of the varnishes and paints, ion exchange resins, rubbers and silicones, as well as assessments carried out in other European assessment bodies, such as the German Federal Institute for Risk Assessment (BFR) and the French Agency for Food Security (AFSSA).
It is also necessary to delete from the Resolution of 4 November 1982 the provisions applicable to plastic materials as they are regulated by Commission Regulation (EU) No 10/2011 of 14 January 2011, on plastic materials and articles intended to come into contact with food, but taking into account that some of the polymer materials other than plastic materials may also incorporate in their composition monomers, additives and other starting substances included in Regulation (EU) No 10/2011, as a result appropriate to authorize their use.
With regard to media for the production of polymerisation used in plastic materials, Regulation (EU) No 10/2011 provides, in Article 6, that those not listed in its Annex may continue to be used. I, in accordance with national law.
Thus, the Resolution of 4 November 1982 included some supports for the production of polymerisation used in plastic materials, and it is therefore necessary to keep them in force until they are reviewed and establish at Community level. Since their use is essential, either to create the right medium for polymerization or to directly influence the formation of polymers, it is necessary to authorize their use, regardless of whether these supports are not intentionally intended to remain in the final product and cannot have a technological effect on it, in contrast to monomers, additives and other starting substances.
On the other hand, and on the basis of the principle of mutual recognition, it is necessary to clarify the situation of permitted substances for the manufacture of polymeric materials intended to come into contact with food products that are legally authorised in other Member States of the European Union, allowing their use with the same restrictions and restrictions as they exist, without prejudice to the responsibility which the food business operators have on the basis of the Community rules.
In short, this royal decree comes to update the list of permitted substances for the manufacture of polymeric materials intended to come into contact with food.
Finally, the provision is adopted with a regulatory range since, according to the Constitutional Court, this royal decree is considered an essential complement to ensure the lowest common denominator. established in national and Community rules which are applicable to regulated matters.
This royal decree has been submitted to the procedure for information on technical standards and regulations and regulations concerning the services of the information society, provided for in Directive 98 /34/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of European Parliament and the Council of 22 June, as well as Royal Decree 1337/1999 of 31 July, which incorporates this Directive into the Spanish legal order.
In its treatment, the autonomous communities, the sectors affected, the consumer associations have been heard and the Interministerial Commission for Food Management has issued a mandatory report.

2. Provisional list of monomers, additives and other starting substances:
The substances which form part of this list correspond to substances listed in lists 7, 8 and 9 of the SCF (Scientific Committee on Food), which do not yet have a favourable assessment, and therefore their use in the The manufacture of polymeric materials is restricted to the fact that their migration is lower than the analytical detection level, with a general level of 0,01 mg/Kg being established. In the event that these conditions cannot be guaranteed, the substance cannot be used. The guarantee of compliance with these conditions must be endorsed by the appropriate documentation, which shall be made available to the competent official control authorities if they so request.

ANNEX II
Conditions of identity and purity to be met by colouring matters for use in polymeric materials in contact with food
1. Maximum tolerances for impurities soluble in hydrochloric acid 0,1 N in relation to the colouring agent (mg/kg):
Lead: 100.
Arsenic: 100.
Mercury: 50.
Selenium: 100.
Barium: 100.
Chrome: 1000.
Cadmium: 100.
Antimony: 500.
2. Content in free primary aromatic amines:
The maximum content of free primary aromatic amines, expressed in aniline, shall be at most 500 mg/kg in relation to the colouring matter. This limitation relates only to primary aromatic amines, which do not contain carboxylic or sulfonic groups. In any event, the migration limitations for these substances set out in Annex II to Regulation (EU) No 10/2011 (should not release primary aromatic amines in detectable quantity-LD = 0,01mg/kg of food or food simulant).
3. Carbon black (or smoke black):
Removable toluene content: maximum of 0,1%, determined according to the ISO 6209 method.
UV absorption of cyclohexane extract at 386 nm: < 0.02 AU for a 1 cm cell or < 0.1 AU for a 5 cm cell, determined according to a method of analysis with general recognition.
Benzo (a) pyrene content: maximum of 0.25 mg/kg carbon black.
