Beer bottle life is recommended for two years expired wine bottle security risks
Winter has passed and the beer season is approaching. Mr. Fan from Zhengzhou told reporters: “In the past two days, I went to the supermarket to buy bottled beer. I inadvertently found the word “B2007†on the upper side of the bottle. When I went to the Internet, I learned that 'B' represented a beer bottle and '2007’ was a beer. The date of production of the bottle. I found that the relevant regulations require beer bottles to use for two years, but in 2007 the bottle is still in use, will there be any hidden dangers?†The reporter then conducted an interview.
"Recommended recycling period for beer bottles is two years."
The reporters inquired about relevant standards and learned that as early as 1996, the state issued the “Compulsory Standard for Beer Bottle GB4544-1996†and it has been promoted nationwide since 1997. The standard specifies the internal pressure, heat resistance and impact resistance of beer bottles. Among them, the exclusive mark “B†and the date of production of the beer bottle must be marked within 20 mm of the upper side of the bottom of the beer bottle. “B†stands for beer bottles, which are distinguished from non-beer special bottles such as wine bottles, soy sauce bottles, and vinegar bottles. The safety of B-shaped bottles is higher than that of non-B-shaped bottles. At the same time, the standard also states that “it is recommended that beer bottle recycling use period is two yearsâ€, which also indicates the “shelf life†of the bottle.
Industry sources also pointed out that since the cost of producing a new wine bottle is much higher than the cost of recycling, the proposal of “recycling the service for two years†has been left behind by many manufacturers. If the production date after the "B" on the "B" bottle is two years ago, it means that the "B" bottle has exceeded the service life, and it can be equated to a non-"B" bottle, and there is a safety hazard.
"Expired" bottles are common in the market
Reporters visited several large supermarkets in the city and discovered that bottled beer light on the shelves can be separated from the outside by old and new. Many brands of beer bottles have “overdue service†phenomenon. The production date of individual brand beer bottles may even be Back in 2007. In some canteens, this phenomenon also exists.
Why are beer bottles "out of service" so common on the market?
During the interview, a beer agent admitted that according to the standard, the life of beer bottles should be two years, but in order to save costs, beer manufacturers will recover some of the used bottles, so the bottle is inevitably exist on the market. The phenomenon. These "overdue" bottles do present potential safety hazards, but generally there is no problem in the winter and it is not easy to say in the summer because the bottles may be frozen in the refrigerator.
The forest master who recycles the waste in the community of Garden Road and Fengchan Road told reporters: “We generally recycle beer bottles from the citizens’ homes and sell them to waste collection stations. Beer bottles are different in size and brand, and the price is not the same. 5 points to 1 hairs 5 to 5. After the waste collection station is recycled, the wine bottle is sold to the brewery."
The two-year limit is only "recommended" instead of mandatory
Reporters Randomly Interviewed Many citizens were informed that they usually did not care about this sign of the bottom of the bottle when buying beer, and seldom considered its safety hazards. In the summer, they even put unopened beer directly into the refrigerator freezer. "When I usually buy beer, I only look at the production date and brand of the wine," says Mr. Wu, the citizen.
When the reporter interviewed several brand breweries in the province, he was told: “The provisions concerning the two-year service life of wine bottles are reclaimed. The state is only 'recommendation' and there is no mandatory requirement.â€
A brewery staff member said: "After the brewery recycling organization recycles the beer bottles, it will use testing equipment to test the pressure resistance and temperature resistance of the bottles, and only after the tests have been qualified will the containers be refilled."
Pay more attention to the bottom of the bottle when buying beer
As for whether the expired beer bottles have potential safety hazards such as explosion or rupture, Wang Rufeng, a senior engineer of the Packaging Technology Association of Henan Province, said: “Beer bottles have many turnovers and long periods of time in the recycling process, and they have to undergo multiple sterilization steps. The degree of capacity and temperature resistance will certainly weaken with the extension of recycling time. After the beer bottle expires, this hidden danger will definitely increase."
“Given the low cost of recycling bottles, manufacturers generally choose to recycle some bottles instead of producing new ones. Therefore, there will be many 'overdue' beer bottles on the market. It is recommended that the public pay more attention to the signs at the bottom of the bottles when purchasing beer, and choose to produce. Beers with a date within two years in order to reduce safety risks. Enterprises should implement the standard as far as possible, and at the same time call for relevant government departments to strengthen supervision.†Wang Rufeng said at the end of the interview.
