Lecta has renewed the "BPA Free - No Phenols Added" certification from Ineris for its entire range of phenol-free Termax thermal papers, reinforcing its commitment to innovation, product safety, and environmental responsibility.
Granted by Ineris—the French National Institute for Industrial Environment and Risk—the certification confirms that Lecta’s thermal paper products meet the strictest market standards. The certification process includes a comprehensive review of technical documentation, a manufacturing audit, and detailed product analysis. It verifies aspects such as traceability, quality control, and chemical composition.
The latest audit confirmed that Termax papers are completely free from Bisphenol A (BPA) and the 15 phenolic compounds listed in the Ineris certification scheme. This positions Lecta as a benchmark in the thermal paper industry.
Lecta’s Termax line includes phenol-free papers used in receipts, tickets, and labels across sectors such as retail, transportation, food, healthcare, entertainment, and gaming.
In addition to the Ineris certification, all Termax products are manufactured in accordance with key international standards:
- ISO 14001 and EMAS for environmental management
- ISO 50001 for energy efficiency
- ISO 9001 for quality management
- ISO 45001 for occupational health and safety
The range is also available with PEFC or FSC® C011032 Chain of Custody certification, upon request.
By renewing this certification, Lecta continues to support sustainable practices in the paper industry, offering safe and high-performance thermal papers that align with evolving regulatory requirements and customer expectations.
