Based on our knowledge of the product compositions and information provided by our suppliers, we confirm that the combined concentration of the heavy metals listed below does not exceed the limit of 100 mg/kg (100 ppm) set out in Article 5(4) of the PPWR. As these substances are not expected to be present above this limit, we do not test every raw material or finished product for trace amounts. 

• Cadmium (Cd)
• Hexavalent Chromium (Cr(VI))
• Mercury (Hg)
• Lead (Pb)
  

PFAS
Based on our knowledge of our product compositions and available information from our suppliers, we confirm that PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) are not intentionally used in the manufacture or formulation of our product. As PFAS are not expected to be present in the product at concentrations exceeding the limits specified in Article 5(5) PPWR (relating to food-contact packaging), we do not test each raw material or product we produce for trace amounts of these substances.
