The environmental fee for bioplastic packaging has been revalued: it will be reduced to 294 euro/tonn and will take effect on 01/07/2021. The revaluation of the environmental fee has been done by the board of directors of conai (national consortium of packaging) on proposal of Biorepack, the national consortium for organic recycling of biodegradable and compostable plastic packaging. This has been announced by conai, stating that “for the first time in Europe, a system of the producer extended responsability gives life to a consortium for the enhancement of  biodegradable and compostable plastic pakaging with an ad hoc environmental fee”
