How well can product packaging be collected separately, sorted and recycled into new products and packaging? With the new „Check for Recycling“ service from Interseroh, companies can now find out for themselves. The quick and easy online test makes it possible to make an initial assessment of the recyclability of packaging with just a few details.
„The Quickcheck is another customer-oriented innovation from Interseroh that helps companies to optimise their packaging in accordance with the Central Agency's minimum standard.“
Markus Müller-Drexel, Managing Director of INTERSEROH Dienstleistungs GmbH
The online tool can be accessed directly via the customer portal of the dual system Interseroh. „Check for Recycling“ is very simple: In the Self-explanatory input mask the user enters the data for Size, weight and composition of the packaging and the components. For further documentation, he can also add a Photo of the packaging material in question.
The quick analysis starts with one click and the user receives a Assessment for the sub-areas collection, sorting and recycling as well as an overall assessment of the Recyclability. In the customised database shows at a glance how environmentally friendly a packaging portfolio already is, and assessments that have already been created can be called up again.
From the status quo to packaging optimisation
The „Check for Recycling“ online tool shows where companies currently stand with their packaging and where concrete action is needed. Need for action consists of. On this basis, they can then use the next step to optimise their packaging with the help of the scientifically sound Consultancy service „Made for recycling“ to optimise Interseroh's processes in a targeted manner.
The packaging is tested in laboratory tests analysed for their recyclability and specific recommendations are derived from this. At the end of the process, companies can usually prove that their packaging is highly recyclable with the „Made for Recycling“ seal.
„Our services now make it even easier for packaging manufacturers and bottlers to make rapid progress towards environmentally friendly packaging design.“
