In order to ensure that human health is effectively protected against any possible risks from materials or objects intended to come in contact with foodstuffs, and to meet Community requirements, the Decree provides a very wide definition of the plastic that may be used in foodstuff marketing. Most of the technical requirements are those defined in the Community Directives in force. The principle of Declaration of compliance with this Decree is established for all plastic used in marketing channels other than retail sale.
