Economic and ecological assessment of packaging waste in Slovenia

The existing regime of waste packaging treatment in Slovenia has several disadvantages and also some advantages relative to regimes prevalent in developed countries. The main disadvantage is the absence of economic incentives for proper handling of waste packaging, particularly as they pertain to individuals and households. As a consequence, an unnecessarily large amount of waste packaging is thrown away into the natural surroundings. Another weakness is an insufficient waste packaging record, particularly in relation to the waste composition. It is especially important that waste is separated according to the type of material (plastic, metal, glass, paper, etc.). The beforehand use of materials is irrelevant from a technological point of view. A relatively large amount of waste packaging is recycled in Slovenia, but this amount is still below the EU average. A very small amount of waste is also incinerated in Slovenia, in accordance with Directive 2008/98/EC guidelines.
