Food & Chemicals Unpacked: Packaging as a Consumer Product - When It's Not Just What's Inside That Counts
Packaging as a Consumer Product - When It's Not Just What's Inside That Counts
In this episode, Partner Sheila Millar, Counsel Antonia Stamenova-Dancheva, and Associate Anushka Stein join our hosts to break down the complex world of packaging regulations for consumer products. From identifying which types of packaging fall under federal scrutiny to preparing for major upcoming changes like CPSC eFiling in 2026, we dive into essentials for producers and importers.
We explore the specific laws that govern safety, including the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act (CPSIA) and the Poison Prevention Packaging Act (PPPA), and analyze real-world recall examples involving physical hazards, lead limits, and child-resistant closures.
