All Nordic countries have an infrastructure with municipal recycling centers as an important part of the total waste management solution for households and small companies. However, a significant amount of plastic waste from the recycling centers is sent to incineration instead of being recycled. This project aims to develop a plastic sorting guide for Nordic recycling centers in order to increase the recycling rate. The guide shall be based on practical experiences. As part of the project, the guide shall be tested at a minimum of two recycling centers.
