This apparently also bans BPS, which is chemically almost identical to BPA and has been used by the industry as a replacement in many "BPA free" products. Could not find word on whether BPF, another bisphenol that's chemically almost identical to BPA, is banned. The regulation just says that "Further harmonised classification of bisphenols and bisphenol derivatives is likely in the future".
