Low migrations inks are designed for use on food packaging that is formulated using selected components, which should ensure that migration from the printing ink film will be within accepted migration limits. It means the low migration inks are specifically designed to not end up inside the food packaging or the food itself.
To qualify as low migration packaging, materials contained in the packaging structure, including printing inks, coatings, and adhesives, cannot have any migratory chemicals, which would affect the appearance, flavor, odor, taste, or the safety of the product contained within the packaging.
