This is precisely where the innovative Austrian app RecycleMich comes in. With clear sorting information, new features and a user-friendly reward system, it provides orientation and motivation for proper waste separation. With over 2.5 million items of packaging registered, RecycleMich has already had a significant impact on recycling behaviour and resource conservation in Austria.<\/strong><br><br>From January 2025, consumers throughout Austria will benefit from a harmonised packaging collection system. However, while the deposit system only covers 20% of packaging, the RecycleMich app offers a comprehensive solution for the remaining 80%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"umfassende-losung-fur-recycling-in-osterreich\">Comprehensive solution for recycling in Austria<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe reason why only 20% of all lightweight packaging is subject to the deposit on disposable containers is very simple: the deposit only applies to disposable packaging for beverages sold in PET bottles or aluminium cans with a maximum filling volume of 3 litres. All other packaging, such as milk, mixed drinks and syrup bottles, sausage and cheese packaging, beverage cartons, shampoo bottles, toothpaste tubes, cleaning agent bottles, etc. will be collected in the same way throughout Austria in the yellow bin or yellow bag from 1 January 2025. The net collection volume for the yellow bin \u2013 i.e. the packaging that is introduced into the recycling process after sorting \u2013 was around 164,000 tonnes last year. The deposit only applies to around 38,000 tonnes of this, which will no longer be collected in the yellow bin or yellow bag from 2025,\u201d explains Ines Kilnhofer, head of the RecycleMich initiative. \u201cOur app helps where there is uncertainty \u2013 right at the waste container,\u201d explains Ines Kilnhofer.<br><br>\u201cWhether it&#8217;s a yoghurt pot with a cardboard sleeve or a detergent bottle with a sleeve, RecycleMich shows you how to separate packaging correctly with a simple scan.\u201d As a new feature, QR codes for downloading the app are displayed directly on yellow sacks in many Austrian regions. \u201cWe are bringing recycling to where it counts \u2013 directly to consumers,\u201d emphasises Kilnhofer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"einfach-und-motivierend-mit-einem-scan-zu-mehr-recycling-egal-ob-wurstverpackung-tierfutterdose-oder-waschmittelflasche-alle-verpackungen-aus-kunststoff-getrankekarton-metall-oder-aluminium-die-in-der-gelben-tonne-oder-im-gelben-sack-landen-bringen-wertvolle-punkte-fur-gewinnspiele-seit-der-einfuhrung-von-recycle-mich-vor-3-5-jahren-hat-die-community-gemeinsam-dazu-beigetragen-wichtige-ressourcen-zu-erhalten-und-die-co\u2082-bilanz-zu-verbessern-zusammen-ist-es-recycle-mich-gelungen-knapp-1-tonne-co\u2082-einzusparen-weil-die-erfassten-verpackungen-durch-das-entsorgen-in-der-richtigen-tonne-einem-hochwertigen-recycling-zugefuhrt-wurden-und-als-wertvolle-ressource-im-kreislauf-erhalten-bleiben\">Simple and motivating: one scan for more recycling<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Whether it&#8217;s sausage packaging, pet food tins or detergent bottles \u2013 all packaging made of plastic, beverage cartons, metal or aluminium that ends up in the yellow bin or yellow bag earns valuable points for competitions. Since RecycleMich was launched three and a half years ago, the community has helped to conserve important resources and improve the carbon footprint. Together, RecycleMich has managed to save almost one tonne of carbon dioxide because the packaging collected has been recycled properly and kept in the cycle as a valuable resource.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"adventkampagne-2024-nachhaltig-durch-die-weihnachtszeit\">Advent campaign 2024: sustainably through the Christmas season<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">RecycleMich is also committed to engagement and education in the run-up to Christmas. On social media, the RecycleMich Advent campaign in December will debunk common myths about waste separation and raffle exciting prices from partners such as Coca-Cola, Henkel, Lidl, Dr. Beckmann, Eckes Granini, Espara, Sky X, Sunnybag and 2x 5 tickets for the coveted Slalom Night Race at the end of January 2025 in Schladming. An additional main price \u2013 a WellCard voucher worth \u20ac300 \u2013 will be raffled off among all app users to promote recycling during the festive season. \u201cEspecially during the Christmas season, when the amount of waste is particularly high, we want to focus on sustainable action,\u201d says Kilnhofer. \u201cWith our campaign, we are making recycling an exciting and rewarding experience.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"ein-starkes-jahr-fur-recycle-mich\">A strong year for RecycleMich<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With 2.5 million items of packaging recycled and 28,500 winners, RecycleMich can look back on a strong year. One highlight was the app being named as a best practice example of circular economy at the international Sustainability Awards 2024 in Amsterdam. \u201cOur successes are the result of close cooperation with partners along the entire value chain,\u201d says Kilnhofer in conclusion. \u201cBecause only together can we make our vision of a sustainable circular economy a reality.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-d25b6741 alignfull\">\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-da305088\">\n\n<h2 class=\"gb-headline gb-headline-134651e7 gb-headline-text\">More Insights<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-query is-layout-flow wp-block-query-is-layout-flow\"><ul class=\"columns-3 wp-block-post-template is-layout-grid wp-container-core-post-template-is-layout-50eac3a5 wp-block-post-template-is-layout-grid\"><li class=\"wp-block-post post-11681 post type-post status-publish format-standard has-post-thumbnail hentry category-recyclemich-en generate-columns tablet-grid-50 mobile-grid-100 grid-parent grid-33\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-post-featured-image\"><a href=\"https:\/\/recycleme.eco\/en\/blog\/recyclemich-app-proves-to-be-a-digital-addition-to-the-new-deposit-system\/\" target=\"_self\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" src=\"https:\/\/recycleme.eco\/wp-content\/uploads\/RecycleMich-ergaenzt-Pfandsystem-in-Oesterreich.webp\" class=\"attachment-post-thumbnail size-post-thumbnail wp-post-image\" alt=\"RecycleMich app proves to be a digital addition to the new deposit system\" style=\"object-fit:cover;\" srcset=\"https:\/\/recycleme.eco\/wp-content\/uploads\/RecycleMich-ergaenzt-Pfandsystem-in-Oesterreich.webp 1920w, https:\/\/recycleme.eco\/wp-content\/uploads\/RecycleMich-ergaenzt-Pfandsystem-in-Oesterreich-300x169.webp 300w, https:\/\/recycleme.eco\/wp-content\/uploads\/RecycleMich-ergaenzt-Pfandsystem-in-Oesterreich-1024x576.webp 1024w, https:\/\/recycleme.eco\/wp-content\/uploads\/RecycleMich-ergaenzt-Pfandsystem-in-Oesterreich-768x432.webp 768w, https:\/\/recycleme.eco\/wp-content\/uploads\/RecycleMich-ergaenzt-Pfandsystem-in-Oesterreich-1536x864.webp 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n<div class=\"taxonomy-category wp-block-post-terms has-small-font-size\"><a href=\"https:\/\/recycleme.eco\/en\/kategorie\/recyclemich-en\/\" rel=\"tag\">RecycleMich<\/a><\/div>\n\n<div style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:700\" class=\"wp-block-post-date\"><a href=\"https:\/\/recycleme.eco\/en\/blog\/recyclemich-app-proves-to-be-a-digital-addition-to-the-new-deposit-system\/\"><time datetime=\"2024-12-09T16:00:15+01:00\">9.
