Food contact information

Regulation (EC) No 1935/2004 on materials and articles intended to come into contact with food and
repealing Directives 80/590/EEC and 89/109/EEC

The product complies with Commission Regulation (EC) No 1935/2004 of 27 October 2004 (the “framework
regulation” on food contact materials). Compliance is claimed based on the following:

- The grade is manufactured in accordance with the broad guidelines for good manufacturing practice as
outlined in Commission Regulation (EC) No 2023/2006 of 22 December 2006 (although no formally audited
GMP system is in place at present).

- Adequate documentation, quality assurance and quality control measures are in place to ensure adherence to
specification, consistency of composition and batch traceability.

Commission Regulation (EU) No 10/2011 of 14 January 2011 and its amendments on plastic materials
and articles intended to come into contact with food

Compliance to the compositional requirements of Commission Regulation (EU) No 10/2011 is claimed based
on the fact the grade listed above is produced from authorised substances listed in the Union list of authorised
monomers, other starting substances, macromolecules obtained from microbial fermentation, additives and
polymer production aids specified in Annex I Table 1 of the regulation.

Users of this grade are reminded of their obligations to demonstrate compliance of the final food contact article
made from the grade listed above. Such demonstration of compliance may be based on migration testing as
specified in Annex V of the regulation using an appropriate stimulant as specified in Annex III of the regulation.
As migration testing is complex, costly and time consuming it should be admissible that compliance can be
demonstrated also by calculations, including modelling, other analysis, and scientific evidence or reasoning if
these render results which are at least as severe as the migration testing.
To fulfil the obligation of providing sufficient information to allow the downstream business operators to ensure
