(1) Ministerial Ordinance on Standards for Labeling of the Steel or Aluminium beverage cans (2) Ministerial Ordinance on Standards for Labeling of the Polyethylene terephthalate beverage or specified sauce containers.
Act on the Promotion of Effective Utilization of Resources requires manufacturers to include specific marks indicating waste separation practices on specified products in order to promote the use of recyclable resources. In regard to steel or aluminum beverage cans and polyethylene terephthalate beverage or specified sauce containers, a significant amount of time has passed since the original enactment of the ministerial ordinances and waste separation practices. Therefore, the following amendments will be made to a) enable manufacturers to secure label space and b) promote further efforts to reduce the amount of waste and to encourage recycling of materials. Meanwhile, the size of required food labeling has been reduced because smaller beverage containers have become popular and the required amount of food safety information which must be displayed has increased. |
