Packaging for the international transport of fresh or refrigerated fruits and vegetables - Recommendations (2nd Edition)

UGX 30,000/=


Abstract

This Uganda Standard lays down the recommendations for the dimensions and mechanical strength characteristics of rectangular packagings usable on one or both types of standardized pallets (800 mm x 1 200 mm and 1 000 mm x 1 200 mm), together with the tests to be passed. This standard applies to single use packagings, whatever the nature of the constituent material or materials (woods, paperboard and plastics materials), used for the dispatch or storage of fruit or vegetables. It also applies to cold storage or long-term storage. This standard does not apply to long distance transport by sea. (This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition, US 568:2005, Packaging for the international transport of fresh or refrigerated fruit and vegetables - Recommendations, which has been technically revised). This standard was published on 24 May 2023.
