15、429:2004) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 261 “Packaging”, the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR. This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by January 2005, and conflicting

16、national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by January 2005. This document supersedes EN 13429:2000. This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of EU Directive(s). For re

17、lationship with EU Directive(s), see informative Annex ZA, which is an integral part of this document. This standard forms one of a series of standards and reports prepared under Mandate M 200 rev.3 and the Second Standardisation Mandate M317 given to CEN by the European Commission and the European

18、Free Trade Association to support the European Council and Parliament Directive on Packaging and Packaging Waste 94/62/EC. The procedure for applying this standard in conjunction with the other mandated standards and reports is specified in EN 13427. According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations

19、, the national standards organizations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard : Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway,

20、 Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and United Kingdom. EN 13429:2004 (E) 4 Introduction The Directive on Packaging and Packaging Waste (94/62/EC) defines requirements specific to the reusable nature of packaging. This document identifies and defines overall tests (see

21、5.2) to demonstrate that a packaging is in compliance with these requirements. The number of trips or rotations is addressed in prCEN/TR 14520 Packaging Reuse Methods for assessing the performance of a reuse system. NOTE The Directive 94/62/EC is amended by European Parliament and Council Directive

22、2004/12/EC of 11 February 2004. The European Standard EN 13427 provides a framework within which this and four other standards may be used together to support a claim that a packaging is in compliance with the essential requirements for packaging to be placed on the market as required by the Directi

23、ve. EN 13429 is one of a series of six standards which address the essential requirements of this directive. EN 13428 adresses quantitative and qualitative minimization. EN 13430, EN 13431 and EN 13432 deal with the requirements specific to recoverable packaging which apply to reusable packaging whe

24、n it is no longer reused and thus becomes waste. The titles of the other five parts of this series are: EN 13427, Packaging Requirements for the use of European Standards in the field of packaging and packaging waste. EN 13428, Packaging Requirements specific to manufacturing and composition Prevent

25、ion by source reduction. EN 13430, Packaging Requirements for packaging recoverable by material recycling. EN 13431, Packaging Requirements for packaging recoverable in the form of energy recovery, including specification of minimum inferior calorific value. EN 13432, Packaging Requirements for pack

26、aging recoverable through composting and biodegradation Test scheme and evaluation criteria for the final acceptance of packaging. The purpose of packaging is the containment, protection, handling, delivery and presentation of products. A major role is prevention of product damage and/or product was

27、te. In order to save resources and minimise waste, the whole system in which the packaging takes part should be optimised. EN 13429:2004 (E) 5 1 Scope This document specifies the requirements for a packaging to be classified as reusable and sets out procedures for assessment of conformity with those

28、 requirements including the associated systems. This document cannot by itself provide presumption of conformity. The procedure for applying this document is contained in EN 13427. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For d

29、ated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.

32、y which packaging, which has been conceived and designed to accomplish within its life cycle a minimum number of trips or rotations, is refilled or used for the same purpose for which it was conceived, with or without the support of auxiliary products present on the market enabling the packaging to

33、be refilled: such reused packaging will become packaging waste when no longer subject to reuse NOTE Definition from Directive 94/62/EC. 3.2 reusable packaging packaging or packaging component which has been conceived and designed to accomplish within its life cycle a minimum number of trips or rotat

34、ions in a system for reuse 3.3 trip transfer of packaging, from filling/loading to emptying/unloading. A trip may be part of a rotation (See Annex A) 3.4 rotation cycle undergone by reusable packaging from filling/loading to filling/loading. A rotation will always contain a trip (See Annex A) EN 134

35、29:2004 (E) 6 3.5 packaging used for the same purpose packaging which, having completed a rotation, is subsequently reused with the original intent, in a system for reuse NOTE Attention should be paid to the intended use and function of the packaging, in order to verify whether it is being reused fo

36、r the same purpose or a secondary use. In the latter case the packaging is not considered as reusable packaging for the purpose of this document. EXAMPLE 1 Reuse of pallets, loaded originally with dairy products and now loaded with house bricks is reuse for the same purpose. EXAMPLE 2 Reuse of jars

37、containing mustard, after emptying, as drinking glasses is not reuse for the same purpose. EXAMPLE 3 Reuse of jars originally containing commercially-made jam, after emptying, for refilling with home-made jam or other substances is not reuse for the same purpose. 3.6 systems for reuse arrangements (

38、organizational, technical and/or financial) which ensures the possibility of reuse NOTE Within the Scope of this document the following are the “Systems” currently recognised (see Clause 6 for further information): closed loop system; open loop system; hybrid system. 3.7 closed loop system system in

39、 which reusable packaging is circulated by a company or a co-operating group of companies 3.8 open loop system system in which reusable packaging circulates amongst unspecified companies 3.9 hybrid system system consisting of two parts: a) reusable packaging, remaining with the end user, for which t

40、here exists no redistribution system leading to commercial refilling; b) one way packaging, used as an auxiliary product to transport the contents to the reusable packaging 3.10 auxiliary product products used to support the refilling/loading of reusable packaging NOTE 1 Auxiliary products are one w

41、ay products and are therefore not covered by this document. NOTE 2 An example of an auxiliary product is a detergent pouch used to refill a container at home. NOTE 3 Non reusable items that support the reusable packaging in its function, such as labels or closures, are considered to be part of that

42、packaging. 3.11 reconditioning operations necessary to restore a reusable packaging to a functional state EN 13429:2004 (E) 7 4 Methodology 4.1 Assessment Enabling conditions The packer/filler shall ensure that the following enabling conditions are met in order to assess whether the packaging is app

43、ropriate for a claim of reusable in the circumstances of its intended use: a) that reusability of the packaging is a deliberate objective; b) that the design of the packaging enables the principal components to accomplish a number of trips or rotations in normally predictable conditions of use; NOTE

44、 It is accepted that certain components, e.g. a sealable closure, may have to be discarded into the recovery stream (See Annex B indent b), but that such items will not constitute a significant proportion, by weight, of that packaging. c) that the packaging is capable of being successfully reconditi

45、oned in accordance with the requirements of Annex B; d) that the packaging is capable of being refilled/reloaded; e) that an appropriate system, necessary to support reuse, is available in markets on to which the packer/filler is responsible for placing the packed product. 4.2 Assessment confirmatio

46、n Written confirmation that the packer/ filler has completed this process shall be provided as part of the statement required in Clause 5. 4.3 Background conditions The overall requirements of reusable packaging are determined by a combination of the demands placed on the packaging itself and the re

47、quirements of the reuse system in which it functions. In practice, this means that the detailed requirements of reusable packaging may change from one application to another. Furthermore, the design process tends to be ongoing in response to operational experience in the reuse of the packaging conce

48、rned. The demands for durability can mean that packaging intended for reuse may incorporate more material than that intended for other uses. To be fully effective the conformity assessment also requires documentary support and in particular the recording of the results of the assessment process. This document requires that this be done in a formal way by a statement recording the fulfilment of all the conditions identified as enabling reuse. With regard to matters affecting the Health and Safety of persons employed in the reuse process, e.g. in refurbishme
