                 The olive oil shall be contained in new metal casks, with stoppers, which have been externally coated

                 hortizontally and twice vertically, by means of metallic straps.
                 The 200 litre metal casks shall be capable of surviving the following vertical shock tests :
                 First test (on three samples) :
                 The cast must hit the impact point diagonally on the base rim, or if there is no rim, on a peripheral joint
                 or edge.
                 Second test (on three other samples) :
                 The cask must hit the impact point on the weakest point that has not been tested during the first vertical
                 shock test, e.g. a sealing device or, in the case of some cylindrical casks, the longitudinal welded sleeve
                 joint.
                 Height of drop : 1,20 m.
                 The conformity of the packaging with the above requirements will be certified by an institute of packa­

            5. Marking :
                 The marking of the metal casks (information in the Russian language plus the European flag) must
                 conform to the requirements laid down in the Official Journal of the European Communities No C 273
                 of 30 September 1994.
