The VerenA-SYSTEM (Packaging Recovery for Agriculture) will open up for the take-back of further packaging materials from agriculture from 01.01.2025. The new collection system was successfully launched in 2023 for the take-back of agricultural Big Bags for non-hazardous filling materials and associated transport and secondary packaging.

In response to the growing demand from agricultural sector for a take-back service for agricultural plastic and paper sacks from the fertilizer, seed and animal feed sectors, we will be offering your end customers starting next year the convenience of returning other empty packaging to the nearby collection points of the agricultural trade.

By integrating the new packaging into the VerenA-SYSTEM, we make the licensing process easier for you as the distributor of this packaging and at the same time generate the opportunity for high-quality recycling of the returned materials. The packaging can now be dropped off at over 250 VerenA collection points, also in combination with other films and packaging from the PAMIRA and ERDE systems.

Which RIGK packaging materials can de additionally licensed in the VerenA-SYSTEM from 2025?

• Paper sacks agriculture
• Plastic sacks agriculture (for non-hazardous fertilizers, seeds, animal feed)
• Combined plastic sacks with exclusion of FIBCs (Big Bags)/fabric sacks (e. g. PE / aluminium, PE / PA, combined material norm: 95%,5%)
