Packaging - Requirements specific to manufacturing and composition - Prevention by source reduction

This document specifies a procedure for assessment of packaging to ensure that the weight and/or volume of
its material content is at the minimum commensurate with the maintenance of :
 functionality throughout the supply and user chain ;
 safety and hygiene for both product and user/consumer ;
 acceptability of the packed product to the user/consumer.
This document also specifies the methodology and procedure for determining the presence of the four heavy
metals named in article 11 of the packaging and packaging waste Directive 94/62/EC and for determining the
presence and minimisation of any dangerous substances or preparations if they are present in packaging and
are likely to be released into the environment as a result of waste management operations. The procedures
are referenced in CR 13695-1 and CEN/TR 13695-2.
NOTE The substitution of one packaging material by another is not a basis for source reduction.
This document cannot by itself provide presumption of conformity. The procedure for applying this document
is contained in EN 13427.
