Scope of the regulation (EU) No. 10/2011
Materials and articles (exclusively) of plastic
Article 2
Scope
1. This Regulation shall apply to materials and articles which are placed on the EU market and fall under the following categories:
(a) materials and articles and parts thereof consisting exclusively of plastics;
(b) plastic multi-layer materials and articles held together by adhesives or by other means;
(c) materials and articles referred to in points a) or b) that are printed and/or covered by a coating;
(d) plastic layers or plastic coatings, forming gaskets in caps and closures, that together with those caps and closures compose a set of two or more layers of different types of materials;
(e) plastic layers in multi-material multi-layer materials and articles.

Regulation (EU) No. 10/2011Plastic materials & articles intended to come in contact with food
Whereas.... (Preamble, Pt 6)
Printed or coated plastic materials and articles as well as those held together by adhesives should be within the scope of the Regulation.
Adhesives, coatings and printing inks are not necessarily composed of the same substances as plastics. Regulation (EC) No 1935/2004 foresees that for adhesives, coatings and printing inks specific measures can be adopted. Therefore plastic materials and articles that are printed, coated or held together by adhesives should be allowed to contain in the printing, coating or adhesive layer other substances than those authorised at EU level for plastics.
Those layers may be subject to other EU or national rules.

Article 19
Assessment of substances not included in the Union list
Compliance with Article 3 of Regulation (EC) No 1935/2004 of substances referred to in Articles
6(1) (polymer production aids),
6(2) (colorants and solvents),
6(4) (non-intentionally added substances as well as aids to polymerisation),
6(5) (additives form the „provisional list“) as well as
14(2) (materials behind a functional barrier)
of this Regulation which are not covered by an inclusion in Annex I to this Regulation shall be assessed in accordance with internationally recognised scientific principles on risk assessment.

Regulation (EU) No. 10/2011Placing on the market of plastic materials and articles
Plastic materials and articles may only be placed on the market if they: (Article 4)
comply with the relevant requirements set out in Article 3 of Regulation (EC) No 1935/2004 under intended and foreseeable use
- endanger human health- bring about an unacceptable change in the composition of the food- bring about a deterioration in the organoleptic characteristics
comply with the labelling requirements set out in Article 15 of Regulation (EC) No 1935/2004; and
comply with the traceability requirements set out inArticle 17 of Regulation (EC) No 1935/2004; and
are manufactured according to good manufacturing practiceas set out in Commission Regulation (EC) No 2023/2006(1)
comply with the compositional and declaration requirementsset out in Chapters II, III and IV of this Regulation.
