KCB also faces up to its responsibility with regard to the topic of "packaging". Thus, all sales, repackaging and transport packaging of KCB goods participate in or are licensed with take-back systems in Germany.
When differentiating the types of packaging, it is important to know that farms, restaurants and handicraft businesses as "comparable points of waste generation" are also generally counted as end consumers (cf. §3 paragraph 11 Packaging Act).
Participation in a dual system
Sales packaging is a sales unit consisting of goods and packaging. All sales packaging filled by KCB and distributed in Germany in the name of KCB is part of a dual system. This packaging is to be disposed of locally via the yellow bin or the yellow bag.

Licensing with a take-back system
Commercial packaging on which KCB is listed as the manufacturer and whose filling weights are higher than those listed above can be handed in to our partner INSERSEROH in the Hohlystem. Likewise, all transport packaging put into circulation by us.
