Information on our obligation to take back packaging materials
According to the current German Packaging Act (VerpackG), Section 15 Paragraph 1 Sentence 1, we are obligated to take back the following packaging materials from end consumers free of charge:
Transport packaging, such as pallets, large packages, etc.,
Sales and outer packaging that typically does not end up as waste with private end consumers after use,
Sales and outer packaging for which participation in a recycling system is not possible due to system incompatibility according to Section 7 Paragraph 5, and
Sales packaging for products containing hazardous substances or
Reusable packaging.
When delivering the product, appropriate packaging material is used, which we take back free of charge. This ensures the recycling of the packaging material. By informing customers about the return options, we aim to achieve better results in the recycling of packaging and contribute to fulfilling the European recycling targets according to EU Directive 94/62/EC.
Sales and outer packaging for which participation in a recycling system is not possible according to Section 7 Paragraph 5. As an end consumer, you can return the packaging material at the place of actual handover or in its immediate vicinity.
