Properties of Teflon: FDA Conforming

DuPont™ Teflon® industrial coatings are highly durable and long lasting performance coatings that have a distinct application process and qualities that offer solutions in a variety of industrial markets.   This series of blogs will highlight one of these inherent properties of Teflon®  coatings and how these properties can solve a variety of problems. 

FDA Conforming: Many DuPont™ Teflon® industrial coatings are approved for food contact by the Food and Drug Administration. These specific designated Teflon® coatings can be used for direct food contact according to the regulations of 21CFR. Check a coating’s fact sheet to see if it is FDA compliant. All Teflon® coating families have FDA conforming options, but in situations that require a primer and topcoat, both coatings require FDA conformance.
