4 Page 4 von Important criteria for tube design 3.01 Printing of tubes Laminate tubes are not printed with the traditional 4-colour set (superimposed printing of cyan, magenta, yellow and black), but rather only true colours are used. We use a relief printing process. Printing of the laminate foil is carried out by printing on a KYODO printing machine. The colours are printed in sequence directly onto the foil with intermediate drying using UV light Number of inking units Our printing machines for laminate tubes are equipped with 6 inking units. A maximum of 5 colours can be used. The 6th inking unit is used for coating with transparent lacquer Number of printing colours No more than 5 true colours may be used when designing the artwork. Special case: Additional colours can be obtained from the 5 true colours by means of superimposed screening of up to a) 2 colours for surfaces and b) 4 colours for illustrations. However, this depends on the printed image and it is essential that this is agreed with us in advance. Lettering and thin lines must not be overprinted, as this creates registration mismatches. Variations in registration to a maximum of +/- 0.4 mm may occur between individual colours The following must not be printed within the specified blank areas: Lettering Company logos or image elements Solid areas 3.05 Print arrangement If possible, areas with full colours and fine lettering should be printed separately with 2 plates "Positive" Type Font size should not be smaller than 5-point (upper case height 1.3 mm) "Negative" Type A font size of at least 6-point (Upper case height 1.6 mm) should be maintained. The font weight should be semibold.

5 Page 5 von Line thicknesses The lines must have a minimum thickness of: Positive lines: 0.1 mm Negative lines: 0.15 mm 3.09 Gaps and overprinting In the artwork negative spaces should be left for all colours relative to each other. Overprinting is determined by the size and intensity of colour of the individual images and is between 0.1 and 0.2 mm Tone Screen The use of a 54 tone screen with round dots is ideal for our printing process. 54 tone screen = 54 dots on a length of 1 cm. As a maximum, printing can be with a tone screen of 60. Finer screens may result in smudged printing. The tonal value of the screens must be a minimum of 3% and a maximum of 80%. For tonal values above 80% there is no visible difference between full colours. Furthermore, with our printing process, dot gain is inevitable for technical reasons. This is approximately 10% Gradients Gradients starting with a tonal value of 3% and ending with 100% of the full colour can be realised in our printing process. Printing of a half-tone image with a soft gradient ending in a 0% tonal value is not possible. Note: Dot gain of 10% must be taken into account. For the screen, the length of the gradient should be at least 25 mm Screen dot angles Ideal screen angles for tube printing are: Screen CQSPlus7.5 (54 screen corresponds to approx. 133 lpi) Cyan lpi 83.7 Magenta lpi 52.4 Yellow lpi 7.3 Black lpi 23.3 Screen Nexus Round (54 screen corresponds to approx 134 lpi) Cyan lpi 14.9 Magenta lpi 75.1 Yellow lpi 0 Black lpi 45

6 Page 6 von Design of eye mark / control mark The vertical eye mark required for aligning the tube for filling should have a minimum size of 3 x 8 mm. In general, eye marks and control marks should be in black or dark blue in order to ensure fault-free filling Position of control mark The horizontal control mark sized 3 x 8 mm is needed for tube length registration. It should not overlap the eye mark Format of Data files It is essential for all texts in the supplied data to be converted/vectorized at the drawing stage, in the case of any images supplied. Please take care that the resolution is correct (images for half-tone/grading at least 300 dpi). Generally, we work with the following programs for Apple Macintosh: Freehand MX, Illustrator CS4, InDesign CS4, QuarkXPress 8, Photoshop CS4 In addition, our plate supplier also has ArtPro workstations (ArtPro 8.6). The software which is used there is highly versatile and always corresponds to the current standard. We also work with the format PDF-X3, or better PDF-X Colour and printing tolerances Colour and printing tolerances result from the printing process. These should be specified for individual cases (e.g. colour tolerance charts) Lacquer Using lacquer rollers, the film is lacquered in the longitudinal direction, taking into account the blank area overlapping side seam Boundaries of the printed area A diagram for the calculation of the printable area, relative to the particular diameter of tube used, is found below. For the individual design of the printed area we provide a printing area pattern as a PDF for any required tube size which we can technically implement. All dimensions are specified in mm.

8 Page 8 von EAN coding With our printing process we can print to specification EAN codes larger than SC 1 (85%). To ensure legibility, it is essential to arrange the code according to the example on pg. 10. We do not warrant the legibility of EAN codes which are arranged transversely to the direction of printing. The check for compliance with the specification is carried out according to the usual methods of statistical quality control. At present REA scancheck 3n equipment is used for testing according to ISO/IEC Registration tolerances Printing tolerances between the individual colours can be up to ± 0.3 mm. 4. Plate widths The following plate widths can be used: Tube diameter Ø Plate width Single sheet width G 13.5 mm 93.0 mm 46,5 mm 22.0 mm mm 73.0 mm 25.0 mm mm 82.5 mm 28.0 mm mm 92.0 mm 30.0 mm mm 98.0 mm 32.0 mm mm mm 35.0 mm mm mm

9 Page 9 von Plate arrangement The plate arrangement depends on the length of the tube. The following possibilities for arranging the sheets result: 2 printed images 4 printed images _I _I _I _I _I _I Direction of printing 6 printed images 8 printed images _I _I _I _I _I _I _I _I _I _I _I _I _I _I Please enquire about possible print lengths. Note: It is essential to take the length of the plate into account when designing the print and creating the artwork.
