Pizza Box

Pizza Box

Papír

The pizza box is a classic waste of paper - at least at first glance. The only problem is that it often bursts from cheese and fat, so it can no longer be recycled.

Miből készül?

It is mostly made of paper and recycled cardboard, sometimes with a plastic coating on the inside. This makes it difficult to select.

Hova dobjuk?

The clean, dry part (e.g. the top of the box) can go to the paper selective bin with the blue lid. While the greasy, cheesy part is: municipal waste or compost (if there is no plastic coating on it). The completely contaminated box: unfortunately, it is a communal trash. 👉 Source: mohu.hu

Miért problémás?

Greasy, dirty paper ruins the entire paper selective collection because the grease is difficult to remove during recycling. There is no alternative to reusable packaging for now and people have not liked sitting in for pizza so much since COVID.
