Division (27)

Regarding question 4, Tetra holds that the technology ‘would not be needed’ for the packaging of juice and LDP and therefore it was not required to disclose its existence in response to this question. However, the Commission notes the question requested all studies and internal documents discussing the potential use of PET in the LDPs and juice segments and asked what was needed to package LDPs and juice in order to compete successfully on the market. It also requested Tetra to discuss its, and its competitors’ activities in this area. This necessitated a discussion of the technologies that the parties and their competitors possessed or were developing in order to compete effectively in future.
