3. About us  TEHNO EKO PAK is new packaging waste management operator in Serbia.  Hamburger Recycling Group GMBH Austria is one of our founders through its daughter company in Serbia (Tehnopapir d.o.o.).  HRG has been established in 1853 and bears the name of its founder, Wilhelm Hamburger.  Today, HRG is a well known recycling company and one of leading European paper producers.  HRG is member of “Prinzhorn Holding” and operates with 4 factories for paper production (2 in German, 1 in Austria and 1 in Hungary) and 12 companies for collecting and processing of waste paper and cardboard.

4. Law on packaging and packaging waste  This law determines packaging waste management obligation for manufacturers, importers, packers/fillers and distributors.  All of them are obliged to be ‘’in line’’ with this law and have 3 options available:  Packaging waste self-management.  To pay ‘’penalty’’ fee for placement of packaging on the market to Environmental Protection Fund.  To transfer obligation to TEHNO EKO PAK who is authorized packaging waste management operator.

5. Packaging waste self-management Not realistic option. In this case company is obliged to:  Provide license for packaging waste management issued by Ministry of environment and spatial planning.  Regularly receive and collect packaging waste from end-users (article 18. and article 23.) and to organize complicated and expensive system of return of its own packaging waste.  Provide adequate space for reception, collection, classification and temporary storage of packaging waste that has been collected (article 19.)  Provide reuse, recycling or disposal in accordance with the law (article 18. and article 23.).

6. Environmental Protection Fund  Much more expensive option.  This means that national goals stipulated by this law are not achieved and company pays much higher fee for placement of packaging on the market.  Company is also exposed to risk of paying penalties stipulated by this law.
