Notices and publications

COTREP works in two orientations:

1- Editing General Notices on impacts of various components on recycling (ink, varnish, glue, closure system…)
COTREP works with every player in the plastic packaging chain to study the impact of the packaging's components on its recycling.
The knowledge base thus created through General Notices is intended as a tool to be used by manufacturers when designing new packaging.

2- Assessing the recyclability of a packaging product or component through a Technical Notice at manufacturer's request.
These notices enable the applicant to assess the compliance of its packaging product or component with other collection, sorting and recycling systems in Europe.
