Article 4 Grading of Class A eggs by weight
United Kingdom
Class A eggs shall be graded by weight as follows:
XL — very large: weight ≥ 73 g;
L — large: weight ≥ 63 g and < 73 g;
M — medium: weight ≥ 53 g and < 63 g;
S — small: weight < 53 g.
The weight-grading shall be indicated by the corresponding letters or terms as defined in paragraph 1 or by a combination of both, which may be supplemented by the corresponding weight ranges. Other additional indications may be used, provided that such indications are not likely to be mistaken for the letters or terms defined in paragraph 1 and comply with F1Regulation (EU) No 1169/2011.
By way of derogation from paragraph 1, where Class A eggs of different sizes are packed together in the same pack, the minimum net weight of the eggs shall be given in grams and the indication ‘Eggs of different sizes’ or equivalent terms shall appear on the outer surface of the pack.
