An eco-contribution, also known as an environmental contribution, is an amount added to the price of a product to compensate for the environmental impacts related to its manufacturing, distribution or disposal.
The eco-contribution can be applied to a variety of products, such as electronics, household appliances, vehicles, batteries and accumulators, chemicals, packaging, lamps, furniture, and many others.
This eco-contribution is paid in full by the producers to the eco-organisations.
The amount of the eco-contribution is determined based on the quantity and nature of the materials used in the production of the product, as well as its overall environmental impact.
