The Green Dot is a system for the collection and recycling of sales packaging used for retail products sold in Germany, Spain, Greece, Portugal, Ireland, Italy and France. A company involved in the manufacture, distribution or retail of consumer goods for the German and French market must be part of the German "Green Dot". The Green Dot is not a recycling logo but a financing symbol. It may only be placed on a package for which you are paying fees to a Green Dot organization”./ q9 A+ M1 q; {9 G1 f7 N Z9 n
In the case of games, most Green Dot organizations hold that a board game box or any similar case (durable CD cases, carrying case for a camera, travel game set) that is used to store the parts of a product throughout its useful life is not packaging. Duales System Deutschland (DSD), however, considers these cases to be long-life packaging and assesses fees at a rate of 30% of the normal fees |
