Information on the obligation to take back packaging material
Under the current Packaging Act, in accordance with § 15 para. 1 sentence 1 VerpackG, 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 that typically do not end up as waste with private end consumers after use,
- Sales and secondary packaging for which, due to system incompatibility under § 7 para. 5, participation in a collection system is not possible, and
- Sales packaging for products containing hazardous substances, or
- Reusable packaging.
When the product is delivered, appropriate packaging material is used, which we take back free of charge. In this way, we ensure that the packaging material is returned to the recycling loop. By informing you about the return options, we aim to achieve better results in the recovery of packaging and to help meet the European recycling targets under EU Directive 94/62/EC.
As an end consumer, you can return the packaging material at the place where the product is actually handed over or in its immediate vicinity.
