Welcome to the Internet pages of the German company for the recovery of commercial and industrial packaging – RIGK – Gesellschaft zur Rückführung industrieller und gewerblicher Kunststoffverpackungen mbH.

Five systems – one solution

The German packaging regulations (Verpackungsverordnung) provide:

Fillers, sellers and importers must take back empty used packaging from their German customers and convey this to a recovery system. This obligation may also be fulfilled by a commissioned partner – such as RIGK.

Five system solutions:
  • the RIGK-SYSTEM for commercial and industrial packaging of non-hazardous products

  • the RIGK-G(efahrstoff)-SYSTEM for commercial and industrial packaging of hazardous products

  • the RIGK-PICKUP-SYSTEM for the pick up of plastic packaging containing non-hazardous and hazardous products

  • the PAMIRA-SYSTEM for agricultural pesticide packaging from the agricultural sector

  • the BEIZMITTEL-SYSTEM for seed dressing packaging > 50 l from the agricultural sector

Using the nationwide network of collection points of the respective system, the waste producer returns the empty packaging. Depending on the filler, the packaging materials are transported to be utilized for energy or materials recovery.
