BRIEF HISTORY
The IS0 Recommendation R 210, Essential Oils. Packing, was drawn up by Technical
Committee ISO/TC 54, Essential Oils, the Secretariat of which is held by the Repartiçiio de
Normalizaçao (IGPAI).
Work on this question by the Technical Committee began in 1952 and led in 1953 to
the adoption of a Draft IS0 Recommendation.
This first Draft IS0 Recommendation (No. 54) was circulated to all the IS0 Member
Bodies for enquiry. As the results of this consultation were not considered satisfactory,
the Technical Committee successively put forward a second and a third Draft IS0 Recom-
mendation, which were circulated in October 1957 and August 1959 respectively.
This third Draft was approved, subject to a few modifications of an editorial nature,
by the following Member Bodies:
Burma Italy Romania
Canada Japan Spain
Chile Mexico Sweden
France Netherlands United Kingdom
Germany New Zealand U.S.S.R.
Greece Pakistan Yugoslavia
India Poland
Israel Portugal
One Member Body opposed the approval of the Draft:
Belgium.
The Draft IS0 Recommendation was then submitted by correspondence to the IS0
Council, which decided, in September 1961, to accept it as an IS0 RECOMMENDATION.
