\n How is producer responsibility organised in Finland?\n <\/p>\n

\n \n

Producer responsibility for packaging is cooperation that involves authorities, producer organisations, companies with producer responsibility, consumers and Rinki.<\/p>\n\n <\/span>\n \n

Producer responsibility is based on legislation. It obliges companies that pack, import packed products or distance sell products to users in Finland to pay for the recycling of the packaging that they place on the market.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Producer responsibility is taken care of by joining a producer organisation. Companies with producer responsibility pay recycling fees to a producer organisation, which uses the funds to take care of the collection and recycling of packaging waste and other statutory duties.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

There are two producer organisations in the packaging sector in Finland: Finnish Packaging Producers Ltd and Sumi Ltd.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Rinki is a service company founded and owned by Finnish industry and retail trade and handles tasks such as the collection of packaging data from companies, customer service operations and invoicing on behalf of Finnish Packaging Producers Ltd. Rinki manages the network of eco take-back points for consumers and offers advice on sorting and recycling on behalf of Finnish Packaging Producers Ltd and Sumi Ltd.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The Finnish Supervisory Agency is the competent authority for producer responsibility.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Several partners are involved in the producer responsibility system, and they all share one ambition: to recycle all packaging.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Rinki handles the registration of Finnish Packaging Producers Ltd\u2019s customers, the collection of packaging data, customer service operations and invoicing.<\/p>\n\n <\/span>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n
