What is BDO?
BDO is an abbreviation for the Database on Products and Packaging and on Waste Management. It is a register of entities introducing products, products in packaging and managing waste, which has been in operation since January 24, 2018.

How do we operate?
We verify the scope of duties, help in submitting a registration application, and instruct in navigating the BDO database in order to be able, for example, to issue a waste transfer card. Having access as a sub-user to the client's database, we can prepare waste record cards and a report on the generated waste. Having access as the main user, we can, after obtaining a power of attorney from the client, send reports to the Marshal's Office. We also help verify the correct performance of the waste recipient's duties (whether they have the appropriate permits, whether he can perform the waste transport service, etc.)
