Explanation
Retail packaging and shipment packaging for decking boards and patio boarding of all kinds are not subject to system participation because they typically accumulate as waste in large commercial enterprise settings (also in retail settings), including craft enterprises, especially floor fitters, gardening and landscaping businesses and other building trade businesses whose packaging waste cannot be collected at the rate that is normally associated with private households in waste bins that do not exceed 1,100 litres.
Specials
Palettes are often used as primary packaging for this product. They do not typically accumulate as waste with private final consumers – i.e. private households and comparable sources of waste generation and are not subject to system participation.

WPC = Wood-Plastic Composite; BPC = Bamboo-Plastic Composite; HPL = High Pressure Laminate

Delineation criterion
Delineation criterion

Criterion that relates to a specific product and determines whether the shipment, retail or grouped packaging in question is subject to system participation.

For food packaging, that delineation criterion often is quantity. For packaging filled with other products, the delineation criterion tends to be the number/volume or unit of the individual products contained in the packaging. Depending on the product, other criteria may be used within the scope of an overall market assessment to delineate or determine whether the system participation requirement applies to a packaging, such as the stress class in the case of laminate products.
