Notes on the Obligation to Take Back Packaging Material

In accordance with the current German Packaging Act (Verpackungsgesetz), § 15 (1) sentence 1 VerpackG, we are obliged to take back the following packaging materials from end consumers free of charge:
• Transport packaging, such as pallets, large packaging, 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 collection system is not possible due to system incompatibility pursuant to § 7 (5)
• Sales packaging of products containing harmful substances, or
• Reusable packaging

Appropriate packaging material is used when the product is delivered, and we will take this back free of charge. In doing so, we ensure that the packaging material is returned to the recycling loop. By informing you about the return options, we aim to achieve better results in the recovery of packaging and contribute to meeting the European recycling targets set out in EU Directive 94/62/EC.

As an end consumer, you can return the packaging material at the place of actual delivery or in its immediate vicinity.
