• With the amendment to the European measuring range of the measurement (MID, Measuring Instruments Directive) on April 30, 2004, significant changes were accompanied by the oak. They are now among the cuts and must therefore be particularly characterized (CE marking) if one or more filling lines are attached.
• Since publication on April 30, 2004, the new MID has been in force in the Official Journal L 135 of the European Union as a guideline 2004/22/EC and received its binding validity as of October 30, 2006. Country -dependent transition times of up to 10 years were possible when implementing national law.
• The responsibility for the correct content of a barge is the one who characterizes the bar vessel. This can be both the glass manufacturer, but also a decorative operation that also has to issue a declaration of conformity.
• In conjunction with the actual filling line and the nominal volume, a manufacturing mark (for Stölzle: Sto) must be attached under the calibration line.
• All serving dimensions must be marked with a so-called CE marking with a minimum label size of 5mm and a given typography. This ensures traceability of the glasses.
• Fill stroke, manufacturing marking and CE marking must preferably be easily recognizable on the chalice or on the glass floor. Stickers are therefore not allowed.
• The CE marking is made up of the indication of "CE", the metrology identification "M" and the last two digits of the year in which the glass was marked. This changes the year with the beginning of a new year. The last four digits of the code are the identification number of the named area selected by the manufacturer, which is involved in the conformity assessment procedure.
