As consumers become more conscious about their health and the environment, manufacturers are increasingly turning to titanium dioxide as a safe and effective alternative to harmful chemicals As consumers become more conscious about their health and the environment, manufacturers are increasingly turning to titanium dioxide as a safe and effective alternative to harmful chemicalswholesale e 171 titanium dioxide.Though the regulated use of titanium dioxide in food products is legal in the U.S. and Canada, it's banned in some other countries, notably throughout Europe. In May 2021, the European Food Safety Authority announced that titanium dioxide can no longer be considered safe as a food additive.
In summary, the Food Directorate's position is that there is no conclusive scientific evidence that the food additive TiO2 is a concern for human health. This is based on a review of the available scientific data relevant to food uses of TiO2. However, we will continue to monitor the emerging science on the safety of TiO2 as a food additive and may revisit our position if new scientific information becomes available.
