scope:

This document specifies the dimensions of the 26.7 mm screw finish with three thread starts and a 17.07 mm height for flat waters and non carbonated beverages. This finish can be used for aseptic filling and filling with introduction of nitrogen. This finish is designed to take a tamper evident plastic closure only. During first opening, the tamper evident band will separate from the closure shell and stay on a one way bottle neck or like bottles in the returnable market, the tamper evident band will tear but will remain connected to the closure shell. This European Standard is based on CE.T.I.E. (International Technical Centre for Bottling and Packaging) data sheet GME 30.23 (2008) Efficient packaging is of great importance for the distribution and the protection of goods. Insufficient or inappropriate packaging can lead to damage or wastage of the contents of the pack.
