Each adhesive has its own special properties. Working in combination, they give the customer added value. An important advantage of HERMAperfect is that its adhesive properties are not dependent on its processing properties. When there is only one layer of adhesive, one must choose between good adhesive properties and good processing properties. When several adhesive coatings are applied at the same time, one can have both. This technology gives HERMA the means to develop and manufacture new and innovative products. http://www.herma-material.de/en/adhesives/hermaperfect.html to ed layers From add alue added v 7 Solutions for any Industry Sticky solutions for any Industry HERMA Self-adhesive Materials Food industry Logistics industry p. 10-11 8 p. 12-13 Solutions for any Industry Chemical industry Cosmetics industry p. 14-15 Automotive and electrical industry p. 16-17 p. 18-19 Pharmaceutical industry p. 20-21 9 Solutions for any Industry Self-adhesive Materials for the food industry “You eat with your eyes” – this is true not only for food, but also for packaging and labels. But appearance is only one factor in labelling. Food labels can be applied under extremely difficult conditions. Labelling is performed at high speeds and in moist or cold environments. Blow-on labelling is a non-contact method of application. Labels must be able to cope with all these conditions. Legal requirements must be considered as well. Adhesives now have to be suitable for use with fatty foodstuffs. In particular, with conventional packaging it must be ensured that the adhesive and label material do not migrate into the food if the film has insufficient barrier properties. Technical requirements: Legal requirements: • High tack • BfR and FDA certification • Insensitive to moist and cold surfaces • ISEGA certification for contact with • Suitable for pasteurisation • Suitable for deep-freeze labels foodstuffs with fatty surfaces • REACH conformity • No-label look • Non-contact labelling • Good perforation qualities • Oil- and grease-repellent 10 Thanks to HERMA’s new multi-layer coating technology, its adhesives fully meet the requirements in both areas. The middle layer provides much higher tack while helping to minimise migration.

If the storage conditions and the conditions at the place of converting are different, the material should have enough time for acclimatisation. Otherwise this might lead to converting problems. Generally the material should unpacked just before converting. 60 Synthetic self-adhesive materials should not be stored under direct sunlight or heat, as otherwise this might lead to brittleness of the film. HERMA self-adhesive materials should be converted systematically based on the principle “first-in-first-out”. Certificates le at: availabl.com s t e e h datas rma-materia Certificates www.he HERMA approvals according to BfR and FDA In the food and pharmaceutical industry a large number of widely differing labels are used. The labels are either affixed to the food packing (indirect food contact) or directly on the food itself, e.g. meat, cheese, fruit (direct food contact). Likewise there is direct application on pharmaceutical products (primary label) and sales packing (secondary label). To reduce the risk of toxic constituents of the adhesive or of the label from migrating into the food or pharmaceutical product, the adhesive, the label material and backing paper are checked for conformity with the requirements of the BfR (German federal institute for risk assessment) and of the FDA (US Food and Drug Administration). HERMA has a large number of widely differing self-adhesive materials for you that meet the requirements of the BfR and the FDA and are suitable for the labelling of food and for pharmaceutical products. To check HERMA adhesive, a special label material, a specific foil or a release liner has the approval according to BfR and FDA please look for the appropriate data sheet.

We are not solely concerned with strategic goals, but also with the values which guide each and every one of our employees in their routine work and at the same time make up HERMA‘s corporate culture.
