Your and our continuous challenge is to produce safe and compliant products Example Press Articles High risk regarding food contamination & compliance 4
Siegwerk offers superior product safety with inks, processes, guidance & support Four Elements to Safe Production Safe products Systematic processes Product safety guidance Proactive safety work 5
Safe products – Siegwerk ensures low migration for whatever applications Migration Mechanisms Set-off Diffusion Substrate Packaging structure Ink Migration via diffusion into packaged good Set-off migration Influencing parameters Benefits • Packaging structure SB, WB, Converting process • + Printing & UV or vegetable oil-based inks with best low migration standards • Ink/ varnishes composition Associated risks to be evaluated in each case + Volume/surface all relevant migrants and support for risk evaluation Information on • ratio • + Packaged good Safe inks reflecting the printing, conversion and end-use of whatever packaging • Storage conditions ! 6
Concrete examples: Food packaging Shrink Sleeves PP, PE or PS & Shrink Sleeves PET In-Mould Labels & Selfadhesive Labels on Cups PS&R recommendations Depending on storage time and thickness of bottles there is a high risk of direct migration Low migration inks and varnishes 7 Possible set-off due to storage in stack. Low but existing migration risk depending on cup thickness Low migration inks and varnishes
Systematic processes – Our material introduction process excludes unwanted substances Raw Material Introduction Process Sample request Lab tests Global HSE approval Business approval New raw material Checklist for Approval • Exclusion criteria (e. g. , carcinogenics, mutagenics, reprotoxics, toxics) • Defined purity standards and full understanding on existing impurities • Compliance with chemical registration • Full understanding of chemical composition for food packaging Benefits + Compliant inks via highest standards in material testing and selection + Reduced claim risk since raw materials checked for impurities + Reliability based on profound analytical know-how also for critical compounds 10
Product safety guidance – We share all information on critical ingredients Siegwerk Information on Relevant Migrants Statement of composition (So. C) • Detailed information on potential migrants • Available for all Siegwerk products Benefits + Full transparency on potential migrants to produce compliant food packaging + Excellent basis to perform worst-case calculations + Supporting information to prepare declaration of conformity 11

Migration – thresholds for migrating substances are extremely low and often difficult to measure Visual overview on migration limits – example dilution of sugar *as in various ww legislation Specific migration limits for evaluated* substances: some ppm down to ppb Sugar cube (2. 5 g) dissolved in Threshold non-evaluated substances/ no concern 10/50 ppb 0. 25 liter cup 14 2, 500 liter truck 2. 5 million l tank ship 10 gram per kilogram (1%) Examples for values 2. 5 liter bottle 1 gram per kilogram (1‰) 1 milligram per kilogram (1 ppm) 1 microgram per kilogram (1 ppb) Alcohol in drinks Alcohol in blood Nitrate in water Heavy metal in water

Ensuring compliance – a complex challenge Regional regulations: European food safety regulations overview Basic principles (Article 3): 1. No risky migration 2. No change in food composition 3. No deterioration of food EU-Framework Regulation (EU) No 1935/2004 GMP (EU) No 2023/2006 Regenerated Cellulose Film 2007/42/EC Ceramics 84/500/EEC Plastic Materials (EU) No 10/2011 Elastomers and Rubbers § Positive lists § Migration limits: a) SML-Value (Specific Migration Limit) in ppm (mg/kg) = based on 1 kg Foodstuff/simulant b) Overall Migration limit of 10 mg/dm² resp. 60 mg/kg foodstuff/simulant c) Calculation basis: 1 kg/6 dm² resp. “as is” Food: Surface ratio 16 Active and Intelligent Materials EC/450/2009 Union Guidelines on Reg. (EU) No 10/2011 on plastic materials and articles intended to come into contact with food Union Guidance on Reg. (EU) No 10/2011 … as regards information in the supply chain
What are the permissible migration thresholds? Threshold (ppb) … they depend on documentation of toxicological data, and of subsequent toxicological expertise by the European Food Safety Authority EFSA Evaluated substances Specific Migration Limit (SML) Most UV standard PIs have to meet 10 ppb 90 days Feeding Study --> X ppb 50 Non evaluated substances X = depends on NOAEL (No Observed Adverse Effect Level) in vitro Genotoxicity tests 10 tox data not existing 17 17
Ensuring compliance – a complex challenge Complex value chain – responsibilities have to be shared Food industry Converter Ink manufacturer 18 Food Safety 6. Final validation 5. Process validation 4. Advice on how to use ink 1. Packaging specifications 2. Packaging conception 3. Ink development & supply Siegwerk proactively assumes responsibility by understanding the needs of each partner in the chain

What is a Low Migration System? MONOMERS • • High purity grade High molecular weight High functionnality Calibrated molecular weight distribution OLIGOMERS • High purity grade • Low viscosity (to limit use of monomers) PHOTOINITIATORS • • • High purity grade Low intrinseque odor High molecular weight Low migration ability High reactivity SICURA LM PIGMENTS ADDITIVES High purity. Purity SUPPORT • Food packaging printing guidelines • Product Safety & Analytical support 30
