Environmental Labeling of Packaging

Environmental Labeling of Packaging: a further commitment to sustainability

 

Legislative Decree 116/20, which transposes EU Directive 2018/851 and Directive (EU) 2018/852, made important changes, introducing mandatory environmental labeling for all packaging released for consumption in Italy.

Environmental labeling gives information about the materials that are part of the packaging.

Please take a look at the table below to understand the type of packaging used by ZAITEX, for multi-component packaging cases the individual components are shown in relation to the overall packaging.
