Packaging - Flexible tubes - Test method to determine the orientation of the flip-top cap

This document specifies a method to test the orientation of the flip-top cap on flexible cylindrical tubes [1].
It is applicable to aluminium, plastic and laminated tubes used for packing pharmaceutical, cosmetic, hygiene, food and other domestic and industrial products.

Verpackung - Tuben - Prüfverfahren zur Bestimmung der Ausrichtung des Klappdeckelverschlusses

Dieses Dokument legt ein Verfahren fest, um die Ausrichtung des Klappdeckelverschlusses an zylindrischen Tuben [1] zu prüfen.
Es ist anzuwenden für Aluminium-, Kunststoff- und Laminattuben zum Verpacken von Produkten der Pharmazie, der Kosmetik, der Hygiene, von Lebensmitteln und anderen Haushalts- und Industrieprodukten.

Emballage - Tubes souples - Méthode d'essai pour la détermination de l'orientation de l'obturateur à charnière

Le présent document spécifie une méthode d'essai visant à déterminer l'orientation des obturateurs à charnière montés sur des tubes cylindriques souples [1].
Il s’applique aux tubes en aluminium, en plastique et laminés, utilisés pour emballer des produits pharmaceutiques, cosmétiques, alimentaires, des produits d’hygiène et d'autres produits à usage domestique et industriel.

Embalaža - Prožne tube - Preskusna metoda za ugotavljanje orientacije zaskočnega pokrova

Ta evropski standard določa metodo za preskušanje orientacije zaskočnega pokrova na prožnih tubah.
Uporablja se za prožne aluminijaste, plastične in laminirane tube, namenjene pakiranju farmacevtskih, kozmetičnih, higienskih, prehrambenih ter drugih gospodinjskih in industrijskih izdelkov.
Pozor: Med sistematičnim pregledom leta 2020 so v Turčiji dali pripombo, da bo treba obseg področja uporabe verjetno omejiti na valjaste tube. O tem bo moral razpravljati tehnični odbor CEN/TC 261/SC 5/WG 26.
