Webinar Overview

This webinar, held in partnership with The European Federation of Catering Equipment Manufacturers (EFCEM), will look at the Drinking Water Directive Recast in the EU. Uniform requirements for materials in contact with drinking water have long been called for and have now been delivered through the new Drinking Water Directive.
