European Waste Catalogue
Packaging containing residues of, or contaminated by, hazardous substances is 15 01 10 — a hazardous (mirror) entry. Cleaned packaging reverts to the material-specific 15 01 codes.
Also searched as: chemical drums, empty IBCs, paint tins, hazardous packaging
The European Waste Catalogue codes waste by the process it arises from, not just the material. Pick the row that matches where your contaminated packaging is generated — each code links to its full classification, valorisation routes and receiving industries.
