As you can see above, ratio of total recycled waste weight in the given year to the total weight of the packaging introduced onto the market, should amount to 56%. Other numbers are for particular types of packaging. For not achieving the above limits, there is an obligation to pay a product fee calculated according to the rules determined in the act.<\/p>\n

The obligation to provide recovery and recycling may be fulfilled in two ways – by the company itself or by cooperation with an organization of the packaging recovery. Despite more expensive, the second option seems to be more comfortable.<\/p>\n

In order to be able to verify fulfilling the above obligation, every company introducing onto the market products in packagings, has to register on paper or electronically, weight of packaging introduced onto the market in the given year. The registry has to be kept five years after the end of the calendar year.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
