Association criticized waste group of Remondis Berlin, June 29, 2009 – for weeks, the trash group unsettled company of Remondis according to the Federal Association of product responsibility for sales packaging (BPVV) provide consumers with free fictional bad news about a supposedly impending off household waste collection yellow tons and bags packaging disposal. At the same time sounded the call for help from the State. This is all the more grotesque than a subsidiary of the company (that is the dual system Ekopunkt) is still being announced in December 2008 to stop contributing to the price decline ‘. “Otherwise used: until then it saw himself as responsible for the decline in prices of him even then defendant”, criticizes the BPVV. The stability of the household packaging collection stand not in question.
She has a healthy base structure. Of course, all market participants are just the dual systems and others held authority, their resulting from the packaging regulation and competition law Duties conscientiously to fulfil”, so the Federation. The economy obliged by the packaging Ordinance have an interest in a fair competition, reliability and the inventory of packaging disposal. Who preach the collapse for no reason or fantasizes about cloudy disposal alternatives, consumers and the economy is a disservice. The BPVV appeals to all those responsible, the instability of packaging disposal does not cause to talk.
A system has emerged under the umbrella of the private product responsibility is unparalleled in Europe, which already exceeded the recycling targets of the new European waste framework directive”. A nationalization or re-municipalization would erode the principle of product responsibility as a core principle of the law of circulation management. Similarly critical to the German packaging Ordinance in question also the newly formed Federal Association expressed dual systems in Germany (BDSD): we do not understand that there are competitors, a market share of under two Percent will want to have and make believe the public, that this market into chaos end”, so BDSD President Raffael Fruscio of a.. This ringleader”would confuse the public. We have no weaknesses at the disposal of packaging waste. However, all system partners who coordinate their work through a clearing house, must adhere to the Treaty, which was signed by all nine dual systems. Here there are”rules of the game that you do not retroactively can override, erlarte Fruscio. The reason for the trouble was the annual statement of accounts 2008. The dual systems need to pay in advance their calculated market shares for the cost of the collection system. It comes at the end of the year to discrepancies between calculation and amount of the final uses a complicated system of compensation and fines. The members of the BDSD now agreed immediately to compensate for each other each other existing compensation for 2008. Messages had caused unrest in April, that larger quantities of sales packaging 2008 had disappeared from the systems and payments in a total value of approximately EUR 40 million for individual system operators would be invoked. Instead of provoking the collapse of the market in public opinions, of the BDSD has preferred to reach an agreement in a constructive dialogue with its members”, said Fruscio.
