The work of preparing International Standards is normally c

International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the wor

International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare Inter

9、national Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of th

11、2:2013(E) Introduction Packaging plays a critical role in almost every industry, every sector and every supply chain. Appropriate packaging is essential to prevent loss of goods and, as a result, decrease impact on the environment. Effective packaging makes a positive contribution towards achieving

12、a sustainable society by, (e.g.): a) meeting consumers needs and expectation for the protection of goods, safety, handling and information; b) efficiently using resources and limiting environmental impact; c) saving costs in the distribution and merchandising of goods. An environmental assessment of

13、 packaging may include the manufacturing and distribution system, the wastage of packaging material and goods, the relevant collection systems, as well as recovery or disposal operations. This group of ISO standards and supporting reports provides a set of procedures which aim to: d) reduce environm

14、ental impact; e) support innovation in products, packaging and the supply chain; f) avoid undue restrictions on the use of packaging; g) prevent barriers and restrictions to trade. Packaging is designed to provide a number of functions for users and producers such as: containment, protection, inform

15、ation, convenience, unitization, handling, delivery or presentation of goods. A major role of packaging is prevention of damage to or loss of goods. (See ISO 18601, Annex A for a list of the functions of packaging.) ISO 18601 defines the interrelationships within the family of ISO standards which co

16、ver the environmental impact of packaging throughout its life cycle (see Figure 1). These standards will help define whether the selected packaging can be optimized and whether the packaging needs to be modified to ensure it can be reused or recovered after use. Demonstration that the requirements o

17、f these standards are met can be performed by a first party (manufacturer or supplier), a second party (user or purchaser), or by the support of a third party (independent body). Public claims on the environmental attributes of packaging may be addressed by different methods. Some of these are techn

18、ical aspects on reuse or recovery, others relate to access by the population to reuse or recovery systems or the amount of packaging placed on the market for recovery. This series of standards addresses the technical aspects of the packaging. It does not address the requirements of ISO 14021 needed

19、to support a claim or label. This International Standard does not use the term “and/or” but, instead, the term “or” is used as an inclusive disjunction, meaning one or the other or both.

23、the environmental consquences of product losses caused by excessive packaging reduction are far greater than guaranteeing adequate protection through an incremental excess of packaging. This International Standard presents a framework for self-assessment to determine whether the requirements of this

24、 standard have been met. Its approach is similar to that of systems standards such as the ISO 9000 series or an environmental management system such as ISO 14001. ISO 2013 All rights reserved vii Packaging and the environment Optimization of the packaging system 1 Scope This International Standard s

25、pecifies requirements and a procedure for assessment of packaging to ensure that the weight or volume of its material content is optimized consistent with the functions of packaging. This is one of several options for reducing the impact of packaging on the environment. This International Standard a

26、lso provides methodologies and procedures for a) determining the amount and minimization of substances or mixtures hazardous to the environment, and b) determining the amount of four heavy metals (lead, cadmium, mercury, hexavalent chromium) in packaging. The potential for such substances to be rele

27、ased into the environment is included in the assessment. The procedures are referenced in Annex C. The process for packaging design, including material selection, is not part of this International Standard. The purpose is to help ensure and demonstrate that the packaging efficiently uses the selecte

28、d material. NOTE 1 For the purposes of this International Standard, the substitution of one packaging material by another is not a basis for packaging optimization. NOTE 2 Packaging material optimization can include increasing the weight or volume of packaging in order to reduce loss of goods. The p

29、rocedure for applying this International Standard is contained in ISO 18601. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application.

43、ied in ISO 18601, Packaging and the environment General requirements for the use of ISO standards in the field of packaging and the environment. 4.2 Packaging assessment 4.2.1 Determination of critical area(s) The supplier shall evaluate the complete list of relevant criteria in Clause 5 to determin

44、e the critical areas which will govern the achievable limit for packaging optimization. See Annex A for guidance. The identification of at least one critical area shall be the basis of meeting the requirements of this International Standard for minimization. If no critical area has been identified t

45、he packaging does not meet the requirements of this International Standard and the potential for (further) packaging optimization is to be investigated. NOTE As some of these critical areas can be interdependent, more than one area can, in some cases, be identified as critical for determining the mi

46、nimum adequate amount of packaging. 4.2.2 Determination of presence of substances or mixtures hazardous to the environment The supplier shall determine (with reference to the guidance provided in Annex C) whether there is a presence of substances or mixtures hazardous to the environment that are lik

47、ely to be present in emissions, ash or leachate when packaging is incinerated or landfilled. For example, the packaging manufacturer should receive from its supplier of substances or mixtures a safety data sheet as defined in 3.8. T h e h e a d i n g “ composition/information on ingredients” should

48、indicate the concentration or concentration range of substances or mixtures presenting an environmental hazard as outlined in Annex C.
