New obligations for producers in terms of waste recycling and recovery

Last update

A new general framework for waste management has been put in place in Luxembourg. The ultimate aim is to transform all waste into a resource, in line with the principles of the circular economy.

For certain specific flows, the proper management of products and waste is now the direct responsibility of producers, whose responsibility has been extended.

These are producers of:

  • packaging and packaged products;
  • batteries and accumulators;
  • electrical and electronic equipment;
  • filters for tobacco products.
