FOOD CONTACT / FOOD ADDITIVE / FEED ADDITIVE INFORMATION
Declaration of Compliance for
Food Contact: Commission
Regulation (EU) No. 10/2011
(and amendments)
This product complies with the compositional requirements of this
regulation for plastics used in food-contact applications. The final
product must meet the overall migration limit of 60 mg/kg of food or
10 mg/square decimeter of the plastic. There are also specific
migration limits for terephthalic acid (7.5 mg/kg of food) and
ethylene glycol or diethylene glycol (30 mg/kg of food). Based on
data obtained by Eastman, articles produced from this polymer
should comply with the applicable overall and specific migration
limits when tested with 3% acetic acid, 10% ethanol and simulant
D under conditions including 2 hours at 70°C followed by 10 days
at 40°C. Regarding the dual use additives provision, there are no
additives subject to restrictions on concentrations in food as a food
additive. This product is intended for use to manufacture materials
and articles in compliance with the general requirements of
Regulation (EC) 1935/2004. This product is produced under good
manufacturing practices in compliance with EU Regulation
2023/2006.
Under regulations administered by the U.S. Food and Drug
Administration (FDA), this product may lawfully be used as articles
or components of articles intended for use in contact with food
subject to provisions of Food Contact Notification Nos. 937 and
1234. This polymer may be used in the manufacture of articles
intended for use (1) in contact with aqueous, acidic, low-alcohol
(up to 13 percent by volume), and fatty foods under Conditions of
Use C ("Hot filled or pasteurized above 150°F") through G
("Frozen storage (no thermal treatment in the container"), and for
use in contact with foods containing up to 50 percent by volume
alcohol under conditions of use E ("Room temperature filled and
stored (no thermal treatment in the container") through G ("Frozen
storage (no thermal treatment in the container") as described in
