Bioitalia chooses cans BPA free

In: News
Today Bioitalia is proud to launch its organic tomatoes and beans in BPA-free cans, size 400g: a full line of boiled beans and of preserved tomatoes in a safe packaging.
Bioitalia decided not to use Bisphenol A into its food containers - even if Bioitalia products had been always safe- considering the alert about it on the international markets and the uncertain position of EFSA (European Food Safety Authority) when talking about the risks for human health when exposed to BPA in everyday diet.
Bioitalia Quality team started studying a solution to avoid this chemical into the inner varnish of its cans in cooperation with the can manufacturer in 2008. Just a few companies decided to switch to BPA-free containers notwithstanding the real risk for human health. Why? Because this kin of cans are more expensive and not all companies would risk to lose market shares by increasing their final price. But Bioitalia did it because it cares first for consumers' health. And it is not just a slogan.

Bioitalia chooses BPA-free cans

Food safety and consumer health have always been at the heart of Bioitalia's decisions. For this reason, we decided years ago to use BPA-free cans for packaging our products.

BPA is a chemical used in the production of certain plastics and resins, often found in the inner linings of food containers. Scientific studies have highlighted the potential health risks associated with prolonged exposure to BPA, particularly its impact on the endocrine system.

Bioitalia's choice

Aware of these risks, we took proactive steps by adopting alternative, safe, and BPA-free coatings for our cans. This decision reflects our ongoing commitment to quality and transparency, ensuring that our products are not only organic but also safely packaged.

Europe bans BPA in food containers

Recently, the European Union decided to ban the use of bisphenol A in food containers, marking an important step forward in protecting public health. This decision underscores the importance of choices like the one Bioitalia made years ago, demonstrating foresight and a strong focus on food safety.

A continuous commitment

Bioitalia will continue to innovate and invest in research to ensure that our products meet the highest standards of safety and quality, solidifying our role as a leader in the organic food industry.
