In the case of waste segregation Many products raise doubts when it comes to the container in which they should be placed. These certainly include raw meat packaging, moldy bread, or advertising leaflets and leaflets. Most people intuitively throw them into the paper bin. As it turns out, some of them shouldn’t be there.
Recycling and proper waste segregation are key issues when it comes to environmental protection. Thanks to this, it is possible to recover raw materials and reduce the amount of waste sent to landfills. For this to happen, however, is fundamental placing waste in designated bins.
They are divided into: paper waste marked in blueplastics and metals in a yellow container, glass (green/white), bio-waste marked in brown and mixed waste for which a black container is intended.
Most waste intuitively ends up in appropriately marked bins, as it is almost obvious. However, they are there such rubbish as to which there is doubt as to the appropriate bin. This is the case, among others in the case of all types of brochures, leaflets and advertising leaflets, which can often be found in the mailbox, under the door or behind the car windshield wiper. Intuitively, they most often end up in the blue bin, but as it turns out, this is not always a good choice.

Advertising leaflets and promotional leaflets handed out in stores or on the street usually go into the blue container intended for paper. In many cases it is the right choice because Many brochures are made of plain paper that can be recycled. It turns out, however, that not all of them, that’s why in the context of proper waste segregation, appropriate vigilance should be maintained.
A lot of leaflets and advertising leaflets it is made of thick, slippery, laminated paperwhich is definitely not suitable for being placed in a blue container. For this type of waste the only right choice is a mixed waste bin marked in black.
The mixture from which these types of leaflets and brochures are made is difficult to process in the recycling process. Interestingly, the situation is similar with many other products, which only seem to be made of paper. This includes, among others, milk and drink cartons, receipts or baking paper.
