FAQ

How should packaging be labelled if it remains soiled with its contents (e.g. jars with residue of hair removal wax)?

In general, all packaging can be disposed of in separate collection only if emptied of the substantial residues of their content. This applies as a basic rule for a correct separate collection that citizens are required to do. Therefore, a package, if emptied of its contents, can be given to separate collection.

It is therefore highly recommended to instruct the consumer to dispose of the packaging in the separate collection only if emptied of substantial residues of content, and to always check the provisions of their municipality.
