EU Regulation 2024/3190 on the use of bisphenol A: New rules for food contact materials - What companies need to know now

Thu, Mar 6, 2025 10:00 AM - 11:00 AM CET | Beatrice Durchardt

Chemical product testing at the VDE Institute

Thu, Mar 6, 2025 10:00 AM - 11:00 AM CET | Beatrice Durchardt

The webinar will provide an overview of the most important changes to Regulation (EU) No 2024/3190 on the use of bisphenol A (BPA) and other bisphenols and bisphenol derivatives in food contact materials, which was published in December 2024.
We will also take a closer look at the changes and restrictions and highlight the necessary steps to ensure the conformity of your products in the future. 
In addition, an interactive Q&A session will be available for participants to discuss specific concerns and questions about their products and the implementation of the legal requirements.

We look forward to your participation in our free online seminar.

Sustainability of electrical and electronic products - repairability, recyclability, LCA and carbon footprint

Wed, Mar 19, 2025 10:00 AM - 11:00 AM CET | Dr. Michael Riess

This webinar explains the assessment of the sustainability of electrical and electronic products in terms of the criteria of repairability, recyclability, LCA and carbon footprint. 

Repairability 
Repairing electrical products contributes to sustainable consumption. In order to make it easier to repair an electrical product, important factors must already be taken into account at the product design level. Using the evaluation scheme developed by the VDE, a uniform and quantifiable assessment of repairability can be carried out. 

Recyclability 
The material composition of electrical products is complex and differs from product to product. In order to be able to recover valuable material components, knowledge of the product's recyclability is crucial. The calculation of recyclability is presented, on the basis of which potential for improvement in product recycling can be shown. 

Life Cycle Assessment and Carbon Footprint 
The life cycle (production, transport, use, disposal) of electrical products has an impact on the environment in many ways, with many different factors playing a role. Life cycle assessment can be used to comprehensively evaluate these impacts. The calculation as specifically tailored to the products examined is presented, as well as the determination of the CO2 footprint of the products.

We look forward to your participation in our free online seminar.
