This British Standard specifies limits for lead and cadmium, expressed as a concentration of the elements, released from the painted surfaces of articles liable to come into contact with foodstuffs, when the article is subjected to a specified method of test.

The limits specified apply to all painted surfaces liable to come into direct contact with foodstuffs, including painted shelves, but excluding surfaces in contact only with those foodstuffs which subsequently receive some external preparation, such as washing or peeling, before consumption.
