16、 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of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by November 2000, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by November 2000. According to the CENCENELEC Internal Regulatio
17、ns, the national standards organizations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Noway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the United
18、 Kingdom. The European Council and Parliament Directive on Packaging and Packaging Waste (94/62/EC) sets targets and measures to be taken by Member States for the management of packaging and packaging waste and includes a number of definitions. This standard has been prepared to elaborate these defi
19、nitions and to show how their usage is linked. To facilitate the understanding of some of the terms, relevant definitions from the Packaging and Packaging Waste Directive and the Waste Directive are included in an informative annex. O BSI 09-2000 Page 4 EN 131 93:2000 I n t rod uc t ion In order to
20、implement the Directive, all those involved in the packaging chain including economic operators, public and local authorities and consumers will be dealing with many terms related to packaging and in particular to used packaging. Some of the definitions in the Directive are self-supporting but some
21、make reference to other Directives. In addition, other terms in common use are not defined in the Directive. This standard aims to provide a comprehensive glossary which uses the applicable Directives definitions, providing when appropriate additional notes to make these definitions understandable w
22、ithout reference to other documents. The standard also contains a scheme showing the linkages between the main terms defined in this standard.

23、 the Environment. 2 Terminology The following principles are used as a basis : - no preference is implied between the different methods of recovery ; - no preference is implied between different packaging materials. The terms are divided between three clauses. Clause 3 contains terms which are speci
24、fically related to packaging and the environment. Clause 4 contains terms relating to degradability and clause 5 terms relating to energy recovery. lhe terms in clauses 4 and 5 are often used in connection with packaging. A scheme showing how a number of the following terms are linked is given in an
25、nex A. This scheme has been included to assist in understanding how the definitions have been derived, particularly in relation to the Packaging and Packaging Waste Directive. It is not intended as a flow diagram and should not be interpreted as such. 3 Terms specific to packaging and the environmen
