Hvilke produkter kan meldes inn?

Hva skjer hvis vi ikke når 95 % innsamlingsgrad?
95 % innsamlingsgrad er for hver fraksjon. Så alle produkter innen PET må nå 95 % innsamlingsgrad for at alle medlemmene skal slippe å betale miljøavgiften. Er innsamlingsgraden under 95 % må man betale miljøavgift.
Får jeg hjelp og veiledning som medlem?
Vi er her for å hjelpe og kan nåes på mail og telefon om det skulle være noe informasjon du ikke finner på hjemmesidene våre.
Hva er forskjellen på PA-kostnad, grunnavgift og miljøavgift?
PA-kostnad er Produsent ansvarskostnad som er en kostnad per solgte enhet til Infinitum, denne kan regnes ut på hjemmesiden vår under kostnadskalkulatoren. Grunnavgift og miljøavgift er avgifter satt av staten til staten. Dette er emballasje avgifter. Grunnavgiften må betales, mens som medlem hos Infinitum faller miljøavgiften bort ved 95 % innsamlingsgrad.
