The single-use plastics directive in The Netherlands

As an office or facility manager, sustainability is a priority. The Single-Use Plastics Directive (SUPD), enforced by the European Union, aims to reduce disposable plastics and promote greener alternatives. Here’s what you need to know to keep your office compliant.

WHAT IS SUPD?

The SUPD targets single-use plastic items like cutlery, straws, and packaging that contribute to pollution. It bans many disposable plastics and holds producers accountable for reducing waste. The goal? Encourage recycling and push for reusable, eco-friendly options.

HOW DOES SUPD IMPACT YOUR OFFICE?

Eliminate Disposable Plastics
Replace single-use items with reusable alternatives like metal cutlery and glass straws.
Introduce a Deposit System
If you offer bottled drinks, implement a deposit system to encourage recycling.
Educate Employees
Raise awareness about plastic pollution and sustainability with quick training sessions.
Collaborate with Green Suppliers
Ensure your suppliers offer products that comply with SUPD and use recycled materials.

SUPD VS. DEPOSITS VS. PLASTIC SURCHARGES

SUPD reduces single-use plastics, while deposit systems encourage bottle returns, and surcharges penalize plastic use. Together, they promote sustainability in your office.
