7 Marking, labelling, packaging, special ordering conditions, transport, storage
and handling
7.1 Marking and labelling

At least the following information shall be marked on every pack, coil, bundle or delivery unit:

— name or registered identification of the manufacturer;
— product designation (see Clause 6);
— order or manufacturing batch number;
— dimension and quantity;
— gross mass (kg).
7.2 Packaging and special ordering conditions

The packaging requirements and any special requirements to take account of particular conditions shall

be agreed between manufacturer and purchaser at the time of ordering.
7.3 Transport, storage and handling

Any instruction regarding transport, storage and handling shall be clearly visible on the package.

The packages should be supported by means of battens providing sufficient space to permit good

ventilation while avoiding any permanent deformation of the sheets. The packages should be inclined in

order to promote drainage.

The packages should be stored under a covered warehouse or under a cover made from tarpaulin over

a frame. The frame should allow sufficient space between tarpaulin and packages to allow air to

circulate.

NOTE 1 For decorative applications material can be delivered with a protective film.

At delivery, the goods should be handled with care to maintain the quality of the product.

The products should be dispatched and stored in conditions which protect them from humidity and

condensation.

NOTE 2 Moisture, especially condensation in packages, can cause stains. If lengthy exposure in a humid

atmosphere is likely there can be further aesthetic change of the products.
