BSI BS EN 13428:2004

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.
