Overview
kSIST FprEN ISO 8367-1:2026 – “Packaging - Dimensional tolerances for general purpose sacks - Part 1: Paper sacks (ISO 8367-1:2026)” – is an international standard released by CEN. This document establishes dimensional tolerances for the manufacture of paper sacks used for general packaging purposes, as defined in ISO 6590-1. Through standardized measurements, it helps ensure paper sacks meet specific criteria for size and material consistency, supporting quality assurance in packaging supply chains.
Standardizing dimensional tolerances for paper sacks is essential for manufacturers, suppliers, and end-users. Consistent tolerances reduce product rejections, enable seamless integration with filling machines, and facilitate compliance with safety and regulatory requirements across national and international markets.
Key Topics
kSIST FprEN ISO 8367-1:2026 covers several important topics relevant to paper sack production and quality:
- Scope and Terms: Defines the range of sack types addressed and the relevant terminology, referencing ISO 6590-1.
- Dimensional Requirements: Specifies acceptable tolerances for multiple sack dimensions such as length, width, bottom width, valve dimensions, and gusset width, promoting uniformity.
- Material Grammage: Details gram tolerance levels for both individual paper plies and total sack construction, critical for mechanical strength and performance.
- Sampling and Measurement Methods: Outlines procedures for measurement and assessment, referencing standards like ISO 6591-1 and ISO 7023.
- Acceptance Criteria: Provides guidance on parameter compliance, with flexibility for stricter tolerances upon agreement between buyer and supplier.
Applications
This standard delivers practical value to a wide spectrum of stakeholders in the packaging industry:
- Manufacturers of Paper Sacks: Enables quality assurance and process control by providing clear guidelines for measurement and inspection.
- Packaging Designers and Engineers: Assists in developing sack specifications suitable for automated filling, transportation, and storage.
- Purchasers and End-Users: Ensures product compatibility and reliability, reducing operational downtime and material waste.
- Quality Control Professionals: Supports auditing and certification processes to meet international product requirements.
- Regulatory Authorities: Offers internationally harmonized criteria that can be referenced in compliance and trade regulations.
Common industries benefiting from kSIST FprEN ISO 8367-1:2026 include agriculture, food, chemicals, construction, and retail, where reliable paper sack performance is critical.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through
ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee
has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations,
governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely
with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
