FOR FRUIT AND VEGETABLES
In order to ensure compliance with EU standards, the CONIP Consortium has drafted a specific “manual” governing the procedures to be followed by companies for the production of plastic crates intended to come into contact – limited to the fruit and vegetable sector – with foodstuffs listed in Annex V to Ministerial Decree dated 21 March 1973, as amended from time to time.
