Christmas closed from 23 December - but help is still at hand
VANA will be closed for Christmas from Monday 23 December to Friday 3 January 2025. But do not worry: If you have questions or doubts - help is still at hand!
If you have questions about the producer responsibility, you can find answers to most of them on VANA's website.
If you are unsure whether your company is covered or which of your packaging is covered, you can read more here.
If you want to know more about single-use plastic products, you can read more here. You can also find information on the DPA website about this here.
On the Danish Environmental Protection Agency's website you can also find information about both the producer responsibility for packaging and the producer responsibility for single-use plastic products, see here.
DPA has a packaging check on their website, which you can find here.
PRO (Producer Responsibility Organisation) requirement - join VANA
From January 2025, membership of a PRO is required if you have producer responsibility for disposable packaging. If you are not yet registered with DPA or a member of a PRO, you can read more about VANA's membership benefits here. We recommend that you register your company, report your advance quantities and choose VANA through DPA and we will automatically be notified.
Are you already registered with DPA and need to opt in to VANA as a PRO before 14 January?
If you are already registered with DPA and want VANA to be your PRO, you need to opt-in to VANA through DPA. You can find a guide on how to do this here.
See you again in 2025!
As we enter the new year, the producer responsibility for single-use plastic products has come into force and the countdown to the producer responsibility for packaging is entering its final phase. VANA's experts are looking forward to the new year and, as always, are ready to help and guide you to ensure you fulfil your producer responsibility.
If you have any other questions while we are closed for Christmas, please email medlemsservice@vana.dk and we'll respond as soon as possible when we return.
Thank you for a busy and exciting year, and a special thank you to those of you who have chosen VANA as your PRO. VANA wishes you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
