Collective scheme mandatory for packaging
As of 1 January 2025, it is mandatory for companies subject to producer responsibility for packaging to be members of one or more collective schemes, who must assume producer responsibility on behalf of the producers. As a company subject to producer responsibility for packaging, you are thus obliged to request one or more collective schemes to on your behalf assume producer responsibility of your packaging categories. The deadline for signing up with one or more collective schemes is 14 January 2025. The change has entered into force with the new Executive Order on Packaging (Danish: BEK nr 1706 af 30/12/2024, see §79).
