    Paper and cardboard

    Paper and cardboard

    Paper and cardboard make up about 30% of our waste. It is possible to recycle all types up to 7 times. By recycling 1 ton of office paper, we save 4,200 kW of electricity, 32,000 l of water, 74% less environmental pollution and we saved 17 trees.

    Basic types of waste cardboard and paper that we encounter the most:

    • mixed papers and cardboard (sorted),
    • corrugated paper and cardboard from the supermarket,
    • old corrugated containers,
    • graded graph paper to remove paint.

    The value of waste paper and cardboard on the secondary raw materials market is constantly changing. Its value and recyclability also depends on how it is collected and what type it is.

          Employees and initiatives

          Employees and initiatives

          Community, cooperation and dialogue - we are synonymous with that. What is decisive for our success are our employees, partners and numerous cooperations. Together we create a future worth living and create higher value.

          We are one

          Our corporate culture “we are one” means respect, exchange and responsibility. Common values ​​unite us – regardless of your assignment at Interzero, where you come from, what you believe in or who you love. Interzero in Germany alone employs people from 41 different nations between the ages of 16 and 67. Appreciating our differences, meeting interests and learning from each other, we promote equal opportunities for our employees. Our competency model serves for a shared understanding of our values ​​and provides orientation for employees at all levels. It represents the foundation for our vision of “zero waste solutions” every day, without giving up, and striving to find the right ways to achieve that vision.

          Staff initiatives for sustainability

          Together we achieve more. That’s why our staff actively contributes to making Interzero a more sustainable company. Since 2016 In 2018, our Sustainability Ambassadors hold sustainability weeks, which involve employees in a range of activities such as clean-up days, sharing programs or CO2-friendly communities. The city’s cycling campaign is also very popular. The goal here is to cycle as many kilometers as possible in three weeks in order to contribute to local climate protection and raise awareness of the need to expand urban cycling infrastructure. In 2017, Interzero cycled almost 7,500 kilometers. This saved about 1 ton of CO2e, as well as 675 euros for fuel. In 2019 Interzero saved almost 5,253 ‘cyclometers’, saving about 745 kilograms of CO2 equivalent.

          Thinking outside the box: Two degrees are possible

          Companies have a central role in achieving the two-stage goal. So what action should we take to reduce global warming? The strategy adopted by the “Road to Economy” initiative< 2 °” is “we achieve more if we work together”. Thanks to its interdisciplinary approach, it unites a wide range of industries, specialties and perspectives with the aim of advancing towards their common goal. Interzero plays an active role. Together with around 40 other companies, we are members of this pioneering project jointly launched by the 2 ° Foundation and WWF Germany.

          Ideas for a sustainable economy

          As experts in closed-loop economics, we contribute our specialist knowledge in dialogue with research, business and the general public.

              Polymers

              Polymers

              Polymers are artificial materials with different properties and purposes that are used in all branches of industry, especially for the production of packaging. Basic types of plastics include:

              • HD-PE – high-density polyethylene (used for milk bottles, yogurts, detergents and other chemical preparations, canisters, drink carriers, waste bins)
              • LD-PE FILM (flexible bottles and transparent bags and colored bags are used)
              • PET BOTTLES (natural / colorful / for sorting) the most widespread type of plastic, which is mainly used for beverage packaging
              • PE-PP HARD PLASTIC
              • PVC DOORS AND WINDOWS

              These materials differ greatly in the way they are recycled and processed. The value of materials on the market of secondary raw materials varies from type to type. The value also depends on how the material was collected and other factors.

              At Interzero, we have an extensive network of trading in secondary raw materials and plastics of all kinds, so we will be happy to prepare an offer or give you more information with our expertise and personal approach.

                Does your export to European Union countries comply with the legislation of those countries regarding packaging waste?

                Charges for packaging abroad

                Packaging waste management frameworks are defined by EU directive 94/62/EC, but its application in individual member countries is different – there are 28 regulations and about 50 different packaging return systems.

                Interzero helps to find answers to very important questions:

                • Which packaging must be declared and when?
                • Which national systems are the most favorable?
                • What are the penalties in case of non-declaration of packaging?
                • How many resources does your company spend on filling out applications?

                Interzero allows you to optimally ensure compliance with all legal regulations and remove the possibility that your company or your partners bear the consequences of non-compliance with these regulations.
