CIRCPACK unveils comprehensive ReCoRe-platform

CIRCPACK launches its interactive ReCoRe platform, offering comprehensive and up-to-date Recycling Country Reports on packaging for 69 countries across the globe.


 

The platform empowers businesses with crucial local insights into collection systems, sorting and reprocessing infrastructure, materials, waste volumes, EPR, regulatory environments, eco-modulation, taxes, labelling, and Deposit Return Systems (DRS).

The recycling landscape for packaging is undergoing continuous changes in local infrastructure, compliance, and legislation. As a result, keeping track of global developments has become increasingly challenging for companies.

Vincent Mooij, Director of CIRCPACK, highlights the platform's benefits: "By providing online access to our platform, we enable brand owners and packaging companies to stay informed on recycling regulations in every country where they market their products. As new regulations emerge, this becomes increasingly vital."

Another key feature of the ReCoRe-platform is its extensive coverage of local Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) organizations and applicable EPR-fees. "EPR-fees vary significantly between countries, and even the methods for calculating these fees can be complex and diverse. To simplify the process, we offer sample calculations for four standard packaging formats in each country," explains Margaux Bares, Project Manager at CIRCPACK.
