The Directives amend the following Directives of European waste legislation:
- Directive 2008/98/EC on waste
- Directive 94/62/EC on packaging and packaging waste
- Directive 2006/66/EC on batteries accumulators and waste batteries and accumulators
- Directive 2012/19/EU on waste electrical and electronic equipment
- Directive 2000/53/EC on end-of-life vehicles
- Directive 1999/31/EC on the landfill of waste
The new legislation strengthens the "waste hierarchy", i.e. it requires Member States to take specific measures to prioritize prevention, re-use and recycling above landfilling and incineration, thus making the circular economy a reality.
Besides increased waste avoidance, higher recycling rates are foreseen: For example, the rates for packaging waste shall increase as follows: From 2025, 65% and from 2030, 70% will be recycled. A recycling rate of 50% will apply to plastic packaging until 2025. A rate of 55% applies until 2030.
Furthermore, there will be reuse targets for textiles, used electrical equipment and bulky waste. By 2025, 5% should be reused, by 2030 at least 15%. The rate of reused sales and transport packaging placed on the market must also be increased.
