Information on the obligation to take back packaging material
According to the current Packaging Act, Section 15, Paragraph 1, Sentence 1 of the Packaging Act, we are obliged to take back the following packaging materials from end consumers free of charge:
- Transport packaging, such as pallets, large packaging, etc.,
- Sales and secondary packaging which does not typically end up as waste for private end consumers after use,
- Sales and secondary packaging for which system participation is not possible due to system incompatibility according to Section 7 Paragraph 5, and
- Sales packaging of goods containing harmful substances or
- Reusable packaging.
Appropriate packaging material is used upon delivery of the product, which we take back free of charge. This ensures that the packaging material is returned to the recycling cycle. By providing information about return options, we aim to achieve better results in the recycling of packaging and contribute to meeting the European recycling targets according to EU Directive 94/62/EC.
As an end user, you can hand over the packaging material at the place of actual handover or in its immediate vicinity.
