2 1 Description and key features 1.1 Description PakFormance is an integration platform that enhances our total systems approach and uses information to provide value to our customers. The PakFormance offering is a unique combination of IS hardware, IS software, and equipment that delivers a network for data exchange. The offering has the ability to link Sealed Air s systems to each other and to third party equipment (scales, printers, labelers etc.). PakFormance is modular, flexible, scalable, configurable, supportable, and focused on packaging. Through this new solution, Sealed Air brings to market new functionalities that allow visualization of the packaging process, automatic in-line weighing, automatic in-line label printing, batch management, tracing through the packaging line, and permanent monitoring for process improvement, etc. Being a modular implementation, the level of features and functionalities will be driven by the line configuration and IS software implemented. Sealed Air s PakFormance delivers continuous visibility over packaging rooms, enables process flow automation, traceability, increases efficiency and significantly reduces operating costs. PakFormance provides the ability to measure, control, and improve both processes and costs. The Sealed Air PakFormance Product Labeling Module (PLM) is composed of an Markem-Imaje label printer and dispenser, enclosed in a stainless housing and mounted on wheels. The Markem-Imaje unit is PakFormance compliant and hence our preferred labeling solution. Other labeling solutions may be explored on specific customer request. The Product Labeling Module can be installed at any step of the packaging process. It is controlled by the packaging line supervisor and dispenses labels automatically to an operator who applies the label onto the either naked or already packed product. The printer can dynamically print any type of information, constant, variable, logo or bar code. The print layout can be fully customized per product type, as long as the products are traced. Construction is simple and robust. All critical parts are treated against the corrosive environment often found in food production and packaging rooms. Designed with ergonomics, safety and hygiene in mind it is easy to use and clean, simple to maintain and meets all relevant European legislation for safety and hygiene. 1.2 Key features Automatic label printing and dispensing One operator required for the label application on naked or packed product Suitable for product flow from right to left and left to right Thermal transfer or direct transfer printing technology Standard Markem-Imaje label creation software Speed depending on the operator (35 labels per minute achievable) Dynamic printing, customized per product if products are traced Enclosed in a stainless housing, mounted on wheels Hygienic design makes cleaning easy and effective 2

The functionality of all label types must be tested by CSC before use. Therefore one label roller must be sent to CSC for testing. It is the responsibility of the customer to ensure that labels comply with all local rules and regulations.
