Annual report Belgium 2013 1) Evolution of the market situation in BELGIUM - Collection of packaging glass • no reduction of CSP in the collected glass waste • Continuous increase of organics by remaining food (Flint) • The quality of color separation is instable • Increase of the non-packaging glass related waste • Quantity ≠ Quality • We fear that the quality of the collected glass will get worse because waste can be disposed for free.

Annual report Belgium 2013 General evolution of the market situation in BELGIUM ● High 5 has started up its new plant for packaging glass recycling in October. ● The float glass market is suffering badly from the crisis in the building industry. ● The relation between the recycling companies and the glass producers is less stressful (possibly due to the shortage of cullet).
Annual report Belgium 2013 General evolution of the market situation in BELGIUM ● Since our local glass producers are using much less than the local cullet availability, we still export most of our processed cullet. ● The strong reduction in float glass production has created an opportunity for the packaging glass producers to use more float glass in order to reduce the heavy metal content in their products.
Annual report Belgium 2013 Export/import issues in BELGIUM (positive/negative experiences with the local /foreign authorities) ● We nearly all started using the WSR (Waste Shipment Regulation) status for Furnace Ready Cullet. (no more annex 7) ● The local authorities accept the WSR status
Annual report Belgium 2013 Export/import issues in BELGIUM (positive/negative experiences with the local /foreign authorities) ● no local accreditation body is accredited to audit and certify our quality management systems for WSR. ● non conformity with annex 2 = conform the EU legislation but limited because of an administrative issue outside our companies responsibility = administrative case outside waste legislation. non conformity with annex 7 (WSR) = not conform the EU waste frame legislation = court case in waste legislation
Annual report Belgium 2013 2) General relation with the Belgian authorities (initiatives promoting our recycling activities) ● Our relation with the authorities is good, but little supportive. At the different round tables, the weight of our sector is not as heavy as that from automotive, scrap or construction (building). ● Hard to realize that glass from ELV’s is removed before the car goes into the shredder. ● The construction (building) industry is not willing to separate the glass from the demolition waste ● The economical aspects seem to get preference before the ecological aspects. Without support from the authorities creating legislation that encourages ecological friendly solutions, we will not increase the recycling volumes of glass from ELV’s and construction.
