3 Agenda 1 The multi-task agents. Hotmelts in packaging 2 Chemistry unveiled. Formulation of hotmelt adhesives 3 Finding the right paragraph. Current legal frame 4 In the pursuit of the invisible. Essential analytical steps 5 From our lab to your mailbox. Service to our customers 6 More than food safety. Adhesives for sustainable and safe performance 3

4 Hotmelt Adhesives: Best Efficiency For Packaging Hotmelt is the most efficient technology for versatile packaging applications Compared to alternative bonding technologies it offers higher production speeds, reduced downtime, lowered material costs and improved operator experience Adhesion to ever broader range of materials, safety and ease of use will continue to drive product development and growth of the hotmelt adhesives market Other technologies Hotmelt Best Technology Efficiency 4

5 Hotmelt Adhesives: Best Efficiency in Packaging Other technologies Hotmelt = Best Technology Efficiency Direct food contact approval Regulation (EU) No 10/2011: test conditions and food simulants Low migration substances Uncompromised Food Safety Henkel: best performance and food safety equally important in product development 5

6 Agenda 1 The multi-task agents. Hotmelts in packaging 2 Chemistry unveiled. Formulation of hotmelt adhesives 3 Finding the right paragraph. Current legal frame 4 In the pursuit of the invisible. Essential analytical steps 5 From our lab to your mailbox. Service to our customers 6 More than food safety. Adhesives for sustainable and safe performance 6

7 Chemistry unveiled Formulation of hotmelt adhesives Depending on performance and application requirements, the 4 building components of adhesives are carefully chosen and brought together in the right proportion. Thermal Stability Additives e.g. antioxidants Adhesion and Tack Resins natural or made of synthetic hydrocarbon Set Speed Waxes e.g. hard or soft wax Viscosity and Flexibility Strength and Cohesion Polymers e.g. EVA or mpo 7

8 Chemistry unveiled Formulation of hotmelt adhesives Selecting suitable raw materials for food packaging adhesive formulations requires a close analysis of all contained substances. There is no gradation of food safety between the four named materials, so none of them can meet less analysis than the others All raw materials are subject to diligent control regarding food safety, quality, supply security and compliance with EU and national legislations 8

Essential analytical steps 5 From our lab to your mailbox. Service to our customers 6 More than food safety. Adhesives for sustainable and safe performance 9

10 Regulatory Requirements In Europe there is no specific legislation for adhesives in food contact but there are legislations valid for adhesives: Framework Regulation (EC) No 1935/2004 Good Manufacturing Practice Regulation (EC) No 2023/

11 Regulatory Requirements Framework Regulation (EC) No 1935/2004 Requirements of the Framework Regulation according to article 3: Materials and articles shall be manufactured in compliance with good manufacturing practice so that, under normal or foreseeable conditions of use, they do not transfer their constituents to food in quantities which could: a) Endanger human health Specific migration limits b) Bring about an unacceptable change in the composition of the food Overall migration limit c) Bring about a deterioration in the organoleptic characteristics thereof Tests for smell and taste 11

12 Regulatory Requirements Framework Regulation (EC) No 1935/2004 Which measure applies for adhesives in Europe Article 3 of the Framework Regulation applies for all materials intended to come into contact with foodstuff Article 5 of the Framework regulation demands to consider specific measures One of the already existing specific measures is the regulation on Plastic Materials and Articles (EU) No 10/

13 Adhesive Regulatory Requirements The Plastics Regulation as specific measure interpreted for adhesives No direct definition of compositional requirements towards adhesives Packaging material 1 Packaging material 2 Foodstuff Adhesive as integral layer of the packaging material is covered by Plastics Regulation Specific restrictions for substances in adhesives listed in the Plastics Regulation must be respected 13

14 Adhesive Essentials Migration What is Migration and what are the Limits? Packaging material 1 Packaging material 2 Foodstuff Contamination Migration Losses Migration 14

15 Essentials Migration Where is migration likely to occur in packaging? Packaging material 1 Adhesive Packaging material 2 Indirect food contact (migration through barrier) Direct food contact (migration at seams/edges) EU legislation does not distinguish between migration from direct or indirect food contact! 15

16 Essentials Migration Which substances can migrate from a packaging hotmelt? Waxes Migreatable Substances Monomers Additives e.g. antioxidants Resins natural or made of synthetic hydrocarbon Waxes e.g. hard or soft wax Additives, e.g. antioxidants Polymers e.g. EVA or mpo 16

17 Essentials Migration Which substances are critical for a risk assessment? European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) Guidance Note for Petitioners: Molecules with MW > 1000 Da: not absorbed by the gastro-intestinal tract toxicologically irrelevant Molecules with MW < 1000 Da: absorbed by human body toxicologically relevant Risk assessment scope: substances with migration potential, e.g. residual monomers and all substances < 1000 Da 17

18 Essentials Migration Different types of Migration Limits Different types of limits are defined by the Plastics Regulation (EU) No 10/2011: Packaging Migration Substance 1 Substance 2 Overall migration limit (OML) The total sum of all substances that migrate from packaging into the food According to European Food Safety Authority 10 mg/dm 2 surface area of material 60 mg/kg foodstuff Specific migration limits (SML) Any compounds unlisted in the Plastics Regulation 10 ppb limit 18

19 Agenda 1 The multi-task agents. Hotmelts in packaging 2 Chemistry unveiled. Formulation of hotmelt adhesives 3 Finding the right paragraph. Current legal frame 4 In the pursuit of the invisible. Essential analytical steps 5 From our lab to your mailbox. Service to our customers 6 More than food safety. Adhesives for sustainable and safe performance 19

20 How to ensure that a End-of-Line Packaging Hotmelt is food safe? 1. Strict raw material selection process To collect all relevant information for substances which are able to migrate (< 1000 Dalton) Chemical name / CAS-No. / SML-value linked to respective legislation To ban Carcinogenic Mutagenic Reprotoxic substances not evaluated on European level To ban nanoparticles not evaluated on European level To identify allergenic substances To identify dual-use additives To identify Non Intentionally Added Substances 20

21 How to ensure that a End-of-Line Packaging Hotmelt is food safe? 2. Migration tests for packaging EoL Hotmelts Conditions for migration tests at Henkel: Contact time: 10 days Contact temperature: 40 C Food simulant: 50% (v/v) ethanol We ensure best conditions to: Simulate a worst case scenario with regard to migration from a packaging adhesive Guarantee that no physical or other changes of the adhesive occur Direct food contact Simulation of 6 months contact hydrophobic medium Avoid Iso-octane and /or 95 % Ethanol Avoid Temperatures above 60 C 21

22 How to ensure that a End-of-Line Packaging Hotmelt is food safe? 2. Migration tests for packaging EoL Hotmelts Our findings from the migration test: Overall migration (gravimetric) Compliance with the limit given in the Plastics Regulation under our worst-case testing conditions Chemical identification of migrated substances Our control if substances with defined Specific Migration Limit are within their respective limits Complete in-house expertise for tests you can rely on 22
