How we rank
The default sorting is based on one criterion: the first-year price for a company below the de minimis threshold (8 tonnes of packaging a year), that is, annual membership plus set-up fee, lowest price first. The price carries 100 per cent of the weight. Set-up fees that are not publicly disclosed count as DKK 0. Supplements for larger volumes are shown as notes on each PRO.
You can change the sorting above the list yourself: annual membership (lowest first), notice period (shortest first, "Not disclosed" is placed last), set-up fee (lowest first, "Not disclosed" counts as DKK 0) or alphabetically by name. Equal values are sorted alphabetically by name.
All figures come from the PROs' public price pages. No PRO pays for placement or ranking.
There are more PROs in Denmark than the ones you see here. We show the ones we have found public price data for. If you are a PRO that wants to be included in the comparison, contact us.
The site is run by Emballage Indberetning ApS, which is itself one of the PROs compared. The site is therefore not independent.
DPA fees come on top
Whichever PRO you choose, your company must be registered with DPA (Dansk Producentansvar). DPA's registration fee to the authority is the same whichever PRO you choose and is therefore not included in the comparison:
