Food Contact

It is the responsibility of the packaging converter or food packager to verify that the finished article meets both
the technical and regulatory requirements of the intended application

European Union (EU) Food Contact


The monomer(s) and the additive(s) of this resin are listed in Commission Regulation (EU) No
10/2011 on plastic materials and articles intended to come into contact with food and all its
Amendments.

This product was tested for overall migration compliance, as well as tested and calculated for
specific migration compliance per Commission Regulation (EU) No 10/2011. The tested sample
thickness was 3.175 mm (125 mils). The surface-to-volume ratio was 1 dm2 sample to 1dl simulant.

For measuring the overall migration levels, this product was tested with 3% acetic acid for 10 days at
40°C, with 10% ethanol for 10 days at 40°C, and with olive oil for 10 days at 40°C. The overall
migration levels are all lower than 1.0 mg/dm2, and meet the overall migration limit (OML) of 10
mg/dm2.

For measuring the specific migration levels, this product was tested with isooctane for 10 days at
20°C. With food simulants of 3% acetic acid for 10 days at 60°C, with 10% ethanol for 10 days at
60°C, and with olive oil for 10 days at 60°C, the specific migration levels were expected to be lower
than the measured levels in isooctane for 10 days at 20°C. This product met the specific migration
limits (SML).

This product does not contain any dual-use additive per Regulation (EC) No 1333/2008 and its
Amendments.
