[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=”130124″]On January 1, 2025, an amendment to the regulation of the Minister of Climate and Environment came into force, which significantly reduced the product fee rates for glass packaging collected under the deposit system. According to the new regulations, for each kilogram of reusable glass bottles, those introducing them will pay<\/strong> : <\/p>\n Let us recall that the previous regulations provided for uniform rates for all types of packaging covered by the deposit system. So what is the reason for this change?[\/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading text_size=”h4″ uncode_shortcode_id=”210754″]<\/p>\n [\/vc_custom_heading][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=”184102″]The amendment to the regulation was intended to make the product fee<\/a> rates more realistic<\/strong> . As emphasized in the justification for the draft of the new regulation, the weight of a glass bottle is many times higher than the weight of a PET bottle or a can<\/strong> of identical capacity. Based on the data cited by the Ministry of Climate and Environment, the weights of half-liter packages covered by the deposit system are as follows: <\/p>\n This means that per 1 kilogram of packaging there are:<\/p>\n In line with the principle that it is the number of packages that litters, not their weight<\/strong> , the product fee rates for glass packaging have been significantly reduced.<\/p>\n Discover Interzero’s comprehensive services for deposit system participants >><\/a>[\/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading text_size=”h4″ uncode_shortcode_id=”110105″]<\/p>\n [\/vc_custom_heading][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=”195451″]The reduction of the product fee for glass packaging was dictated not only by economic issues, but also by ecological ones. The use of reusable packaging has a positive impact on the environment and brings us closer to the realization of the idea of circular economy<\/strong> . The use of returnable glass bottles reduces the scale of production of new bottles, and thus reduces carbon dioxide emissions, electricity consumption and raw materials<\/strong> . <\/p>\n Maintaining the current, uniform product fee rates<\/strong> for all these types of packaging could cause those introducing them to abandon their use and replace \u201cexpensive\u201d reusable glass with much \u201ccheaper\u201d single-use plastics. Giving up reusable glass bottles would be a step backwards, moving us further away from the transition to a circular economy.<\/strong> <\/p>\n See also:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Sources:<\/p>\n [\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Glass bottles collected under the deposit-refund system will be subject to a lower product fee than originally assumed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":23,"featured_media":18161,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[82,89],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-18175","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized","category-news"],"acf":[],"cp_meta_data":{"_encloseme":["1"],"_yoast_wpseo_primary_category":["1"],"_wpml_media_duplicate":["1"],"_wpml_media_featured":["1"],"_top_nav_excluded":[""],"_cms_nav_minihome":[""],"_thumbnail_id":["18161"],"_yoast_wpseo_opengraph-image":["https:\/\/interzero.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2024\/12\/Zmiany-w-BDO-od-2025-r.-\u2013-m.in_.-wyzsze-stawki-i-nowe-przepisy-w-gospodarce-odpadami-niebezpiecznymi-1024x691.jpg"],"_yoast_wpseo_twitter-image":["https:\/\/interzero.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2024\/12\/Zmiany-w-BDO-od-2025-r.-\u2013-m.in_.-wyzsze-stawki-i-nowe-przepisy-w-gospodarce-odpadami-niebezpiecznymi-1024x691.jpg"],"_uncode_secondary_thumbnail_id":["0"],"_uncode_featured_media":["17954"],"_uncode_header_height":["a:2:{i:0;s:2:\"50\";i:1;s:1:\"%\";}"],"_uncode_header_align":["left"],"_uncode_specific_menu_opaque":["off"],"_uncode_blocks_list":["5704"],"_uncode_header_title":["on"],"_uncode_header_style":["dark"],"_uncode_header_content_width":["off"],"_uncode_header_custom_width":["100"],"_uncode_header_position":["header-center header-middle"],"_uncode_header_title_size":["h1"],"_uncode_header_title_italic":["off"],"_uncode_header_title_custom":["off"],"_uncode_header_featured":["on"],"_uncode_header_parallax":["off"],"_uncode_header_overlay_color_alpha":["100"],"_uncode_header_scroll_opacity":["off"],"_uncode_header_scrolldown":["off"],"_uncode_sidebar_position":["sidebar_right"],"_uncode_sidebar_size":["4"],"_uncode_sidebar_fill":["off"],"_uncode_header_type":["header_uncodeblock"],"_uncode_header_full_width":["on"],"_uncode_specific_menu_no_shadow":["off"],"_uncode_header_background":["a:6:{s:16:\"background-color\";s:10:\"color-wayh\";s:17:\"background-repeat\";s:0:\"\";s:21:\"background-attachment\";s:0:\"\";s:19:\"background-position\";s:0:\"\";s:15:\"background-size\";s:0:\"\";s:16:\"background-image\";s:0:\"\";}"],"_uncode_sidebar_sticky":["off"],"_uncode_menu_no_padding":["on"],"_uncode_menu_no_padding_mobile":["off"],"_uncode_fullpage_type":["curtain"],"_uncode_fullpage_opacity":["off"],"_uncode_scroll_dots":["off"],"_uncode_empty_dots":["off"],"_uncode_scroll_history":["off"],"_uncode_scroll_safe_padding":["on"],"_uncode_scroll_additional_padding":["0"],"_uncode_fullpage_mobile":["off"],"_uncode_scroll_snap":["off"],"_uncode_specific_layout_width_custom":["a:2:{i:0;s:0:\"\";i:1;s:2:\"px\";}"],"_uncode_specific_media":["off"],"_uncode_specific_tags_align":["left"],"_last_translation_edit_mode":["translation-editor"],"_cmplz_scanned_post":["1"],"_yoast_wpseo_title":["From 2025 new product fee rates for glass packaging"],"_yoast_wpseo_metadesc":["The new regulations provide for a reduction in the product fee for reusable glass bottles covered by the deposit system.
