Managing waste documentation - e-ONTO
Management of e-ONTO waste documentation
Interzero Hrvatska offers its clients waste documentation services so that they can deal with their core business unhindered and protect themselves from the possibility of fines from inspections due to incorrect or incomplete documentation.
e-ONTO stands for Record of Origin and Flow of Waste and is used to record waste flows in the territory of the Republic of Croatia. Obligors to keep records through the e-ONTO application are:
- waste sludge producer
- a person who carries out cross-border transport of waste
- waste logistics carrier
- the person who takes possession of the waste
Interzero experts assume your responsibility – they record all the necessary data and keep records up-to-date, accurate and complete , which is the duty of every taxpayer.
We start with creating your user account and continue with all the entries and management of PL-O in the e-ONTO application.

Our climate strategy: 50 percent less emissions on site by 2025
Through our services, our customers save greenhouse gas emissions and resources. But our own business activities also produce CO2 emissions. Our goal is to reduce the emissions of harmful gases at the site and thereby contribute to the climate goal agreed at the UN Climate Change Conference 2015 – limiting global warming to well below two degrees. For this purpose, we design our own processes and activities so that they save resources and be as efficient as possible. Based on the calculation of our corporate carbon footprint, we have formulated our climate strategy and concrete goals:
- 50 percent reduction of emissions at the location (Scope 1 and 2) by 2025
- Continuous search for optimization potential in logistics and work towards the goal of reducing the resulting emissions
- Annual savings of at least 5.5 million tons of resources and 800,000 tons of CO2 equivalent through own services

Depreciation and destruction of goods
Depreciation and destruction of goods
The depreciation of goods for destruction/disposal is a tax-deductible expense (in the sense of profit tax), during which no value added tax obligation arises.
Are you writing off goods that have expired, are no longer in the sales range or did not meet the import requirements ? Goods that are destroyed are properly and ecologically disposed of or recycled, which eliminates the possibility of their return to the market.
From a financial point of view, the write-off of goods for destruction/disposal is a tax-deductible expense (in the sense of profit tax), during which no value-added tax liability arises.
Interzero can help you write off/destroy the following segments of goods:
- Detergents, chemicals
- Adhesives, silicones, paints, varnishes
- Medicines, drug store
- Clothes, shoes
- Food, drink
- Toys
- Consumer goods
- Goods that did not meet the conditions of import
Here are some common methods for destroying such goods:
Burning
Incineration involves burning expired goods at high temperatures. This method is often used for perishable items, drugs and hazardous materials. However, it may not be environmentally friendly and could release pollutants into the atmosphere if not properly controlled.
Postponement
Recycling
In some cases, expired goods can be recycled or repurposed. This is a more sustainable approach that helps reduce waste. For example, expired food products can sometimes be used for composting or turned into animal feed.
Chemical treatment
Donation
Return to manufacturer
Controlled decomposition
Secure destruction services
Regulatory Compliance: Companies and organizations must comply with local, state, and federal regulations regarding the disposal of expired goods, especially hazardous or controlled substances. Compliance with these regulations is essential to avoid legal consequences and environmental damage. It is important to note that the method chosen to dispose of expired goods should prioritize safety, environmental impact and compliance with relevant laws and regulations. In addition, some expired goods, such as certain medicines, may have specific disposal guidelines from regulatory authorities to ensure that they do not harm people or the environment.

Made for recycling - certificate
MADE FOR RECYCLING - Is your packaging suitable for recycling?
Designing recyclable packaging and avoiding non-recyclable waste is an increasingly important task for retailers, leading brands and packaging manufacturers.
Evaluation of packaging in terms of recyclability
Recyclability refers to the degree to which materials used in the production of products whose life cycle has expired can be returned to the material cycle and thus close the material loop.
In the packaging evaluation process, we check:
- Will the end user (household) know how to properly separate the packaging and put it in the recycling system?
- What are the physical properties of the packaging in order for the sorting system to recognize it and separate it correctly?
- Is there a local infrastructure for recycling this material?
We carry out advanced laboratory measurements, analyzes and ecological diagnostics of processes that enable optimization of product packaging according to EU directives. With the help of a rating scale, we will determine the threshold and target values for the recyclability of your packaging materials.
We will also provide guidance on how to improve or award a certificate for the achieved high level of recyclability of your packaging.
Do you know how recyclable your packaging is?
In cooperation with the German institute Bifa, Interzero has developed the “Made for Recycling” service – a check of the recyclability of packaging based on generally accepted standards developed and approved by independent international institutes. The verification process is simple. Interzero analyzes packaging samples in its Plastics Recycling Competence Center and determines to what extent the packaging can be recycled. Here we use a scoring and evaluation system based on various factors: the size of the packaging, its conductivity, whether the end user will be able to separate it properly, whether there is an infrastructure nearby for recycling used packaging materials, etc. The method is the result of Interzero Group’s own development. After the packaging evaluation process is completed, we draw up a report and issue a certificate of the packaging sampling results. If the level of recyclability of packaging is not sufficient, we also prepare a plan to improve recyclability.
Steps to certification and Made for recycling quality mark:
- You send 5 packing samples.
- Your packaging is tested and analyzed at the Competence Center for Plastics, Maribor, Slovenia.
- You receive a certificate and report on recyclability that contains specific and practical recommendations if further action is required.
- You optimize your packaging.
- We review and analyze your improvements again.
WHY CHOOSE MADE FOR RECYCLING?
High recyclability
Packaging can be recycled well above the minimum legal standard.
Optimal use
They are valuable materials that can be reused in new products and packaging.
Correct waste disposal
The consumer knows how to sort them and throw them away.
More responsibility
You make an important contribution to the promotion of the circular economy.
Efficient sorting
In sorting systems, they are assigned to the right material.
Recyclable ice cream packaging
To secure the best position for circular economy practices, Unilever has put its Cremissimo ice cream packaging under the loop. Laboratory analysis confirmed: Cremissimo packaging is very easy to recycle – for this it received the “Made for Recycling Interseroh” quality mark. The ice cream packaging is made of 100% polyolefin and is designed without barriers that cannot be recycled.
Packaging ready for circular economy
New: chocolate in a paper bag – Ritter Sport’s new “mini bag” is now available in a highly recyclable paper bag that has been awarded the “Made for recycling Interseroh+” mark. With the new “mini bag” Ritter Sport took the first step towards using paper. For this purpose, a newly developed special paper is used, the coating of which does not cause problems in the recycling process.
Cheese in recyclable packaging
Grunlander semi-hard cheese is available in more sustainable packaging from September 2021. It consists of 94% recyclable material and has the “Made for recycling” certificate. The packaging gets the seal only if it can be easily or – as in the case of Grunlander – very easily recycled.
