Global migration based on executed test made with:

Method Nor. EN 1186-4:        Exposure to olive oil by cell. Gravimetric + GC/FID determination

Method Nor. EN 1186-5         Exposure to 10% ethanol by cell. Gravimetric determination

Specific migration based on executed test made with:

Method Nor. EN 13130:

Irganox 1076                        Migration simulant analysed by GC/MS

1-hexene n-butlacrylate        Migration simulant analysed by Headspace-GC/MS

Atmer, Caprolactam             Migration simulant analyzed by GC/MS

Zinc, Maleic anhydride          Worst case calculation based on the result from overall migration.

It can be used for contact with aqueous and fatty foodstuff with a pH > 4.5. If used for foodstuff with a pH < 4.5 it must be tested again using a simulant B (Acetic acid 3%).

Note: This statement is provided for your guidance only and no warranties on your final products. Because the conditions of commercial use are not under our control, therefore migration tests on the finished package are needed for reconfirmation by the user.
