bubblewrap

Some items are wrapped in plastic bubble wrap to protect them during transport. These bubble wraps are examples of household packaging waste and go in the PMD bag. Large films should be cut into smaller pieces of no more than one square metre. Larger films interfere with the processes in the sorting centres. Large plastic films can sometimes be collected at the recycling park of your municipality. You can find more information on the website of your commune or intermunicapal authority.

Please note: such films are only welcome in the PMD bag if you need to sort them as a consumer. Pallet films and other large films that are released in large quantities in business contexts should be collected via a separate waste stream through your waste operator.
