The Ministry of Environment estimates that approximately 41,000 companies in Denmark will be subject to the pending Extended Producer Responsibility for packaging.
The Extended Producer Responsibility for packaging becomes effective from 2025, but already starting from 2024 companies must register their expected quantities of packaging.
Emballageretur can help you with this registration and much more.
We are a non-profit collective scheme, and on behalf of our members, we carry out the mandatory registrations in the digital producer registry (Dansk Producentansvar), handle your waste responsibly and cost-effectively, advise and keep you updated on applicable laws and new regulations, and obtain benefits of scale for you and our other member companies by managing the Extended Producer Responsibility collectively.
Our organisation is based on nearly 20 years of experience with managing the Extended Producer Responsibility. Throughout the years, we have designed waste management processes, ensuring you the most responsible, safe, and cost-effective solution to your Extended Producer Responsibility.
The Extended Producer Responsibility for packaging is established to motivate producers and importers to consider more sustainable solutions when they design or choose their packaging. This involves everything from packaging design and material selection to making it easy to reuse the packaging, choosing the most efficient collection logistics and developing recycling technology.
As a member of Emballageretur, you are guaranteed that your used packaging will be recycled, reused, or responsibly disposed of in the best way possible. Not only in Denmark but also in the EU, Norway, Switzerland, and the UK.
Members of Emballageretur also get access to our European platform (weee Europe), and we can help you navigate the rules and regulations for the Extended Producer Responsibility for packaging in various countries.
