Division 3.7 Specific rules concerning labelling

The product must be released for consumption bearing the specific logo in order to identify it and guarantee its origin.

Marking must be carried out at the abattoir. The meat is displayed for the sale in the cuts described in point 3.2.

In addition to the Community graphic symbol and indications and the information required by law, the packaging must carry on the label the following indications in clear and legible print:

• the name ‘Abbacchio Romano’ must appear in clear indelible letters that are significantly larger than and markedly different from all other writing. It must be followed by ‘Indicazione Geografica Protetta’ and/or ‘IGP’,

• the logo must be impressed on the carcase surface so that it lies on the outward side of the cuts,

• the logo takes the form of a square made up of three coloured lines, green, white and red, interrupted above by a wavy red line linked to a red oval within the square containing a stylised lamb’s head. The square is interrupted below by the red capital letters ‘IGP’. Within the lower part of the square are the words ‘Abbachio’ in yellow capitals and ‘Romano’ in red capitals.

The name ‘Abbacchio Romano’ must be in Italian.
