Dispensers

I don't agree with Trsitan's comment below.

I believe 'dispenser' is being (arguably wrongly) used here as 'a container for serving something' — wider than just a serving dish, as it clear includes food preparation as well.

In this sense, I think 'recipient' is the perfect technical term, covering as it does a very wide range of possibilities.

I don't think we should regard 'dispenser' here in the very narrow sense of e.g. a soap / drinks / paper towel dispenser.

I'm thinking of using 'ustensiles' as it can be very general : a 'récipient' can be an 'ustensile' (but the reverse isn't true)

Maybe "dispositif", as suggested by Tristan Jimenez: dispositifs de traitement des aliments ??

Une marmite est un récipient, mais ce n'est pas un "dispenser"..

the dispensers = les récipients

The problem is this 'tools' :/
...and 'devices'

My translation for the definition:
Dispensers = Tout ustensile, équipement ou appareil utilisé dans la manipulation d’aliments

...translate it as 'recipient'

(editing questions has to be avoided, otherwise people could unfairly change them so they no longer match answers given)

Packages: Any dispenser, cover or roll of whatever form or composition in which food is placed or packaged, as well as the materials used to tie or close the container

I really wonder why questions cannot be edited...

A part is missing: source text is Qatari law No. 8 of 1990, regulating the control of human food
