Explanation
Sales packaging and grouped packaging for Christmas and other festive decoration items in quantities of 50 items or fewer are subject to system participation because they typically accumulate as waste with private households or comparable sources of waste generation (within the meaning of section 3 (7) VerpackDG) such as food and beverage businesses, accommodation establishments and healthcare facilities (e.g. hospitals, elderly care facilities).

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.
