As a Valipac client you receive a bonus of €50 per tonne of recycled material used in your commercial and industrial plastic packaging. This bonus only applies to commercial and industrial packaging that:
The bonus is paid in 2025 as a discount on the invoice amount relating to the 2024 reference year declaration. To calculate the amount, you will have to report the commercial and industrial plastic packaging containing PCR and put on the Belgian market, separately in your 2024 declaration.
From reference year 2025, this bonus will increase to €100 per tonne.
Your company has purchased shrink hoods containing 50% of PCR. The total weight of the hoods is 20 tonnes. 60% of this packaging is used for the Belgian market, 40% for export. Your bonus will amount to 20 tonnes x 60% = 12 tonnes, of which 50% PCR = 6 tonnes x €50 = €300.
If the packaging contains 30% PCR, but you use less than 200 kg of PCR annually, you will receive a fixed bonus of €10. From an annual use of 201 kg of PCR, the bonus is calculated according to the example above.
