Technical regulations on juice products introduced too quickly

According to Rospotrebnadzor in Russia in general the share of enterprises that have moved to a new packaging design, the technical regulation, amounts to 56,3%. At the same time the proportion of juice products in the packaging of a new model in stores around the country is 41,2%. Russia's juice producers have been slow to comply with new technical regulations.

New technical regulations are reflected in the first place on our customers, - said President and CEO of ZAO "Tetra Pak" Igor Akimov. - For us, the producers of packaging, it is more work. In a very short time we had to change the 3,5 thousand designs packaging. In general, the adoption of a new technical regulation think the right decision, but had to give a little more time for its introduction.
