Cookware & Kitchen Electrics Chemicals Disclosure
Groupe SEB always places the wellbeing of its customers at the heart of its concerns. Groupe SEB’s absolute priority is to produce safe and highly qualitative products to improve consumers’ daily lives. All our products comply with relevant rules established by the federal Food and Drug Administration, including the relevant requirements of Title 21 of the Code of Federal Regulations governing the safe use of substances in contact with food.
California Assembly Bill 1200 (“A.B. 1200”) and Colorado House Bill 22-1345 (“H.B. 22-1345”) require manufacturers of cookware and kitchen electrics to disclose the presence of certain chemicals that are intentionally added to the handle of the product or in any product surface that comes into contact with food or beverages. California’s A.B. 1200 applies to chemicals identified on California’s Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC) Candidate Chemicals List, while Colorado H.B. 22-1345 applies to PFAS chemicals.
- “Kitchen Electrics" encompass a variety of small, electric-powered appliances designed for kitchen use, including blenders, food processors, coffee makers, toasters, electric kettles, electric grills, waffle makers, electric skillets, mixers, hand blenders, food choppers, electric can openers, electric knives, rice cookers, juicers, and electric citrus presses. These appliances are tailored to streamline and enhance various aspects of food preparation and cooking.
Colorado H.B. 22-1345 Disclosure Details:
PTFE coated products contain PFAS chemicals (polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), perfluoroalkoxy alkane (PFA), fluorinated ethylene propylene (FEP)), which are used for their non-stick properties.
California A.B. 1200 Disclosure Details:
The following tables identify the products for which a chemical disclosure is required to comply with A.B. 1200.
