Violation of Packaging Requirements
Our old mate is still with us!
Are you aware of the Packaging requirements
for Packaged Ice?
 
• Do you have non-compliant operators in your delivery areas?
• Do their bags have adequate and legal identification on them?
• Do they have tamperproof seals?
• Do they comply with recall procedures?
These are not a few casual questions……..They are LAW!
 
To our members,

If your non-compliant operators bags do
not comply with Australian Standards as
you do…..he is breaking the law!

All Ice bags should be properly marked
stating…….

• The Manufacturer.
• His address (or telephone contact).
• The Nett weight of the product.
• A system of traceability for recall.
• And be sealed with a tamperproof seal.

Report it to the PIAA and let us do the
legwork for you in reporting the infringement
to the proper authorities.

You will be completely anonymous.
The PIAA can make contact with the relevant authorities in the reporting
process, all we ask is your co-operation in supplying us with the information
on the downloadable pages which are viewable by clicking here.
Please check the bag details for compliance, fill in the form, and please
