Packaging Notes
Information on the take-back obligation for packaging materials
In accordance with the current Packaging Act (§ 15 Para. 1 Sentence 1 VerpackG), we are obligated to take back the following packaging materials from end consumers free of charge:
- Transport packaging, such as pallets, large containers, etc.,
- Sales and secondary packaging that typically does not end up as waste at private end consumers after use,
- Sales and secondary packaging for which system participation is not possible due to system incompatibility pursuant to § 7 Para. 5, and
- Sales packaging containing hazardous substances, or
- Reusable packaging.
The corresponding packaging material is used when the product is delivered, and we will take it back free of charge. This ensures that the packaging material is returned to the recycling cycle. By informing about return options, better results in the return of packaging should be achieved and a contribution to meeting the European recovery targets under EU Directive 94/62/EC should be ensured.
As an end consumer, you can hand in the packaging material at the place of actual handover or in its immediate vicinity.
