Food packaging, paperboard

What to do:

1. 1

   Sort carton and liquid packaging made of carton, paper packaging and cardboard packaging for carton packaging collection.

2. 2

   Remove food scraps from the packaging and clean if necessary. Drain off the liquids from juice or milk containers and rinse.

3. 3

   Let the packaging drip dry. The packaging is sufficiently clean and dry if you can store it for a few days at home without any odour or mould problems. Mould spoils the packaging, rendering its raw material no longer usable as carton.

4. 4

   Caps which come off of packaging are sorted into plastic packaging waste collection. It is not necessary to remove caps, staples or packaging tape attached to the packaging.

5. 5

   Flatten carton and cardboard packaging and pack them nested inside each other, so that they take up less space in the waste container.

   Please note! Also flatten milk and juice containers, but do not nest them too tightly inside each other. The recycling process at the facility is more successful when these containers are packed slightly more loosely.
