ISO 6577:2002

Nutmeg, whole or broken, and mace, whole or in pieces (Myristica fragrans Houtt.) - Specification

ISO 6577 specifies requirements for nutmeg, whole or broken, and for mace, whole or in pieces, obtained from the nutmeg tree (Myristica flagrans Houtt.) for wholesale commercial purposes.

NOTE As nutmeg and mace are obtained from the same plant, it was considered preferable to give the specifications for these two spices in one International Standard.

It does not apply to Papua-type nutmeg and mace (Myristica argentea Warburg).

Recommendations relating to storage and transport conditions are given in annex A.

To comply with a standard, you need to quickly understand its issues in order to determine its impact on your activity.

- mandatory clauses to satisfy,
- non-essential but useful clauses to know, such as permissions and recommendations.

The identification of these types of clauses is based on the document “ISO / IEC Directives, Part 2 - Principles and rules of structure and drafting of ISO documents ”as well as on a constantly enriched list of verbal forms.
