What changed

The update reinforces that single-use EPS takeout containers and cups are part of the restricted material set under the program’s current implementation.

Why it matters

This is the kind of update packaging, sourcing, commercialization, and regulatory teams need surfaced quickly. It has immediate implications for material decisions, supplier communication, and product readiness for the California market.
