Entrepreneur, remember to separate your construction waste from 1 January 2025!
According to EU reports, more than a third of the waste generated in Europe is construction and demolition waste. Some of their elements have a high raw material value, while others - although they may have a lower value - can still be easily recycled into new products or materials. For this reason, the Act of 17 November 2021 introduced changes to the Waste Act that make it mandatory for businesses to segregate construction waste. The changes are to take effect from 1 January 2025.
