B.6 Example 2 of scheme E

An international group of private certification bodies offers certification of packers’ production systems on the basis of the requirements of OIML R 79:2015 and OIML R 87:2016 (product requirements) as well as ISO 9001:20086), extended with specific requirements concerning the quantity control as part of the production system, as specified in the description of the scheme published by the certification bodies. The group of certification bodies is identified as a legal entity and acts as the scheme owner. The certification bodies are accredited for their scheme on the basis of ISO/IEC 17065:2012.

The packer uses the certificate and (if applicable) the mark of conformity as licensed to him as evidence that the prepackages he produces comply with the stated requirements.

Such a scheme may be beneficial to packers who export to countries that have limited resources to control prepackages at the border, but will accept certification under the scheme.
