Permitting the transport of plastic waste: how to exploit the recycling potential in Europe
Europa coraz lepiej radzi sobie z recyklingiem opakowań. Z roku na rok rośnie ilość odpadów, które wracają do obiegu zamiast na składowisko. Jednocześnie rośnie rola plastiku jako surowca wtórnego, a nie tylko „problemu do rozwiązania”. Za tymi liczbami stoi jednak coś jeszcze. Każda tona odpadów musi fizycznie dojechać z magazynu, centrum logistycznego albo zakładu produkcyjnego do instalacji recyklingowej. Dlatego pozwolenie na transport odpadów plastikowych staje się dla przewoźników realnym narzędziem rozwoju biznesu, a nie tylko kolejnym dokumentem. Poniżej pokazujemy, jak połączyć potencjał recyklingu z praktyką pracy firmy transportowej. Potencjał recyklingu plastiku w Europie – co mówią liczby Jak podaje portal…

Mercury dispute. An EU step in the right direction
The European Union has decided on dental amalgam: it has banned its use in children, pregnant women and nursing mothers. Mercury still remains Unfortunately, mercury will be with us for years to come. But there will be much less of it. Much now depends on the individual EU Member States. It remains to be seen whether the health of their citizens is important to them. For the time being, the European Union has banned the use of amalgam in those most exposed to toxic heavy metals - children, pregnant women and breastfeeding mothers.Hanna Schudy Decisions at EU level European civil society influenced in early December a preliminary agreement between the European Parliament, the European Commission and the Council of the Union...

Used engine oil: how to turn a problem into a valuable resource?
On a day-to-day basis, we are unlikely to think about what happens to the oil we pour out in a restaurant after a fry-up or change during car maintenance. However, every drop matters - if inappropriately managed, it can become a danger to the environment and, if well stored, a valuable resource. Used engine oil, industrial oil or cooking oil is a topic worth looking into. And that is exactly what we will do in this article. Old Europe, new challenges - the continent's oil balance sheet Millions of tonnes of waste oil are generated in Europe, and the scale and nature of the waste varies greatly depending on the source. Engine and industrial oils dominate quantitatively, while cooking oil (UCO) is gaining...

Transporting hazardous waste without a permit - why is it a bad idea?
The transport of hazardous waste can only be carried out by companies that have special permits. But what if such a document is missing?

Finnish waste permit: the ticket to success
Finland has for years been building an image as a country for which waste is not a problem but a valuable resource. It strives to keep residual waste to a minimum and is developing a system in which recycling and waste-to-energy facilities support energy security instead of landfills. At the same time, in order to keep modern incinerators running, the controlled supply of waste fuels from other countries is becoming increasingly important. This is an opportunity for those companies that have a Finnish waste permit and are able to act as a stable partner rather than just an ad hoc haulage contractor. A market where waste works for energy Finland has built a system where landfilling of municipal waste has virtually disappeared. A key role...

Your BDO, our responsibility - end-to-end service for companies
BDO is the register that determines the legality of the waste cycle. Obligations derive from the role, as the generator, collector or transporter accounts for differently than the processor. However, everyone has to take care of the correct entry and its updating, and some - in addition - have to keep the KPOs up to date and report annually. Negligence quickly turns into administrative decisions, fines and stoppages. It is therefore better to act in advance. Handling BDO for companies on our side is a solution that reduces the risk of penalties. Before you go any further - why it even matters Not every company knows that it should be listed in the BDO register. Some have an account set up, but...

Bulgaria and Romania in the Schengen area from 1 January 2025. How will this affect waste transport?
For the country, joining the Schengen area means the abolition of border controls at internal borders with other Member States. This facilitates the free movement of people, goods, services and capital. For transport companies, this means less paperwork and faster deliveries. And will waste hauliers feel the changes when the Romanian and Bulgarian borders are opened to them from 1 January?
