Recycling fees 2020

12.11.2019

For cans, the recycling fee will increase 30 % (from 0,00552 € to 0,00718 €). The rise is caused by a fall in the world market price of aluminum, which affects the sales revenue of the material. The value of the aluminum is not expected to rise in the near future. 

The plastic bottle recycling fee will be reduced by 15% in all recycling fee categories. The reduction is made possible by the increased demand of recycled material thus producing a good level of material revenue. 

The glass bottle recycling fee is reduced by 15% in all recycling fee categories. The finances of Palpa Lasi Oy are currently solid and the company's future financial outlook allows the reduction in recycling fees.

Design guidelines for PET bottles update 6/2019

17.06.2019

In February 2018, Palpa published a new material specification for PET bottles, prohibiting the use of PET material in the labeling of plastic bottles, as the material poses challenges in recycling. The transition period was until 31 August 2019. Based on the feedback we have received from beverage manufacturers and importers and label manufacturers, no substitute material is available, so we accept the use of PET labels for the time being.
