The Barbados National Standards Institution (BNSI) is inviting interested stakeholders to review and comment on the draft CARICOM Regional Standard on Biodegradable Products – Specification DCRS 73.
This standard specifies the requirements for classifying materials as biodegradable or compostable, and the specifics for labelling these products.
The BNSI welcomes the input from stakeholders drawn from industry, government, regulators, academia, labour, consumer organisations, non-governmental and professional organisations and users of these products, to present a balanced and unbiased view of the document. Interested persons should call Renate Lynn Sealy at 426-3870, or email rsealy@bnsi.com.bb or bnsi.office@barbados.gov.bb by Monday, October 5.
