Standards Development
This European Standard is applicable to plastic and laminate tubes which have a peal-off membrane for tamper-evidence purposes. This membrane is made of either aluminium or plastic. A test is performed to ensure that the consumer can remove the membrane without excessive force leading to a completely opened orifice.
We have noticed that the tearing force is not defined equally in the different language versions of EN 16284. In some language versions instead of 300 mm/min a value of 300 mm/m is mentioned. This is confusing and must be harmonised in all language versions.
The correct tearing force is 300 mm/min
