However, the manufacturing process we use does not
conform to HACCP or the food safety standards specified
in the Japanese food safety law, so when using YUPO®
for food containers and packaging, implement safety
measures in the printing and processing stages. |

"Containers and packaging" refers to items
containing food or used to wrap food, in which food
is transferred to the container or packaging as is (Article
4-5 of the Japanese food safety law). |

"Apparatuses" refers to items used for drink
and food utensils, cooking apparatuses and removing

YUPO® is a synthetic paper with virtually
no odor. |
| (2) |
YUPO® materials that have undergone
oil-base offset printing using ink for YUPO®
have a pungent odor, which is the odor of the ink. |
| (3) |
For applications in which odor would become an issue,
laminate the printing surface with PP or PET. |

YUPO® and ALPHAYUPO®
may have a bitter taste when licked depending on the
person. This is the bitterness of the agents used in
treating the surface of YUPO®, but as
mentioned above, it is safe for the human body. |
| (2) |
To prevent the effects of the bitterness on food packaging,
etc., laminate YUPO® with a film. |
