Explanatory films
With our explanatory films, we aim to make the obligations under the Verpackungsgesetz (Packaging Act) easy to understand. The films explain how to use the LUCID Packaging Register, how to register and submit data reports, as well as key terminology and other important questions that arise in relation to fulfilling the obligations under the Verpackungsgesetz.
