Environmental labelling of packaging

Mandatory information for the B2C customer

The packaging is labelled with the Möbius cycle symbol (the international symbol indicating the recyclability of the material) together with the alphanumeric code (numbering and abbreviations) required by the European Directive and information on the final destination of the packaging. 

In the following table you will find useful information for the correct handling of waste from materials that may be contained in packaging.

General additional information

Recycling of materials plays an important role within the hierarchy and management of waste, and proper separate collection is an indispensable step to ensure that those materials can be given a second life, in a circular economy perspective.

Some suggestions for responsible management

Before disposing of packaging, think about whether you can reuse it to store other products, for example. If possible, flatten the packaging to facilitate storage and collection.
