From 1 July 2024, businesses selling drinks in disposable cups will have to provide their customers with alternative packaging that is more environmentally friendly and helps to reduce plastic waste. This is why Interzero is introducing a new service - Made 4 Loop.

How not to drown in the maze of new legislation that Polish and EU experts are preparing for us was discussed at the panel 'Waste tsunami, how not to drown in packaging', which took place on 12 October during the European Forum for New Ideas (EFNI). Among others, Anna Grom, CEO of Interzero, took part in the panel.

We are publishing the 'Resources SAVED by recycling' study for 2022, in which we prove that Interzero and our customers are reducing greenhouse gas emissions by around 1 million tonnes and primary resource consumption by 8.7 million tonnes.

On 24 August, together with employees from the Eurocash Group, we travelled to Germany to look at the deposit system in practice. Together we visited shops with both a bag-based collection system and an automatic collection system. We also visited the Interzero Conversion Centre, where waste is sorted into the appropriate fractions.

To help companies adapt to upcoming regulatory changes that will favour recyclable packaging, Interzero has launched an eco-design support programme called Made4Circle. Read on to find out more.

A week ago, on 9 May 2023, the law implementing the provisions of the SUP (Single Use Plastics) Directive was published, meaning that the legislation will soon come into force.
The regulations mainly focus on imposing restrictions and requirements on the marketing and use of single-use products made from plastics, and on the separate collection of waste from these products.

The product charge is a type of environmental fee that must be paid by entrepreneurs who place products and packaging on the market. The purpose of this fee is to ensure proper handling of packaging waste in accordance with the Waste Act and to encourage entrepreneurs to reduce the amount of packaging produced. If you want to learn more about this obligation, we encourage you to watch the training course "Does the product fee apply to your company?" at Interzero Academy!

The running of any business always involves responsibilities on the part of the entrepreneur. In fact, they concern various areas of life, including environmental protection.
If you would like to brush up your knowledge on the subject, attend the training course 'Environmental protection: what obligations entrepreneurs have'.

On 7 April, Przemysław Kuna, Managing Director at Interzero, took part in an episode of the Entrepreneurs' Adventures podcast on company waste management. During the interview, the topics discussed included BDO, ROP, waste penalties, official controls and awareness among Polish entrepreneurs.

Waste management is one of the obligations of entrepreneurs that cannot be avoided. When performing these activities, mistakes often occur due to ignorance. Watch a training course on this subject at Interzero Academy!

Sustainability can be an opportunity for many companies. ESG regulations are worth looking at not only in terms of potential costs for the company, but also in terms of tangible benefits, including profits and savings of natural resources. Read on and find out how we are closing the raw material cycle together with our customers.

What will be the impact of legislative delays on the deposit system? What about the excessive incineration of packaging and what will the future of chemical recycling look like?
