ConAgra goes BPA-free for U.S. and Canadian food cans

摘要

ConAgra Foods Inc., owner of Hunt's, Chef Boyardee, Libby's, Van Camp's and other iconic canned-food brands, has completed the transition to cans that do not have bisphenol-A (BRA) liners. The company completed this change to its food packaging, which affects its U.S. and Canadian canning facilities, on July 30. Ardagh Group supplies the new cans, which are made with a BPA-free coating. Although ConAgra currently imports into North America what it describes as "a small quantity of canned products" with BPA liners, the company expects these products to also be BPA-free by early next year.
