Explanation

Retail packaging for commercial furniture of all kinds is not subject to system participation because it typically accumulates as waste with craft enterprises whose packaging waste cannot be collected at the rate that is normally associated with private households in waste bins that do not exceed 1,100 litres. (It also accumulates in retail settings.)

Although packaging for commercial furniture accumulates as waste with comparable sources of waste generation (within the meaning of section 3 (11) VerpackG) to some extent, the lion's share remains with retailers or is unpacked and taken away again upon delivery.

However, shipment packaging for commercial furniture of all kinds typically accumulates as waste with private final consumers – i.e. private households and comparable sources of waste generation such as service enterprises, food and beverage businesses and accommodation establishments and, as such, is subject to system participation.

An IBC is a large, cuboid container for liquid and free-flowing materials. An octabin is an octagonal container used to transport and store bulk materials.	Delineation criterion Delineation criterion × Criterion that relates to a specific product and determines whether the shipment, retail or grouped packaging in question is subject to system participation. For food packaging, that delineation criterion often is quantity. For packaging filled with other products, the delineation criterion tends to be the number/volume or unit of the individual products contained in the packaging. Depending on the product, other criteria may be used within the scope of an overall market assessment to delineate or determine whether the system participation requirement applies to a packaging, such as the stress class in the case of laminate products.
