08 03 18 Waste printing inks (inks) other than those specified under code 08 03 17
Printing inks are widely used in a variety of industries, including printing, packaging, product labeling, and many others. This material is an integral part of many production processes. However, along with the widespread use of printing inks comes the problem of generating waste that does not fall under the code 08 03 17. This waste often contains chemicals that can be dangerous for the environment and human health. Therefore, it is important to consider the problem of managing such waste and find ways to reduce its negative impact.
Printing ink waste, which does not fall under code 08 03 17, includes a wide range of materials generated during the production, preparation, supply and use of printing inks. This waste may contain paint residues, solvents, unused mixtures, contaminated containers and equipment. The problem is that these materials often cannot be easily recycled or safely destroyed. Without proper management, they can accumulate and pose a threat to the environment.
Manufacturing processes create a large amount of waste, especially in the case of small runs or frequent color changes. In addition, improper storage or transportation of waste can lead to leaks and contamination of soil and water resources. This creates significant challenges for enterprises that must comply with environmental regulations and standards. Services for waste management, collection and processing: Waste printing inks (inks) other than those specified under code 08 03 17, NPV code 08 03 18.

A pity for the environment and people
Waste printing inks can have a serious negative impact on the environment. The main components of such waste are solvents, pigments and other chemicals that can be toxic to plants, animals and aquatic organisms. During leaks or improper storage, these substances can enter the soil, contaminating it and water resources.
Harmful substances from printing inks can lead to:
- deaths of plants and animals;
- pollution of surface and underground waters;
- accumulation of toxins in food chains;
- decrease in soil fertility.
It is also worth noting that some paint components are persistent organic pollutants that can persist in the environment for a long time and have a cumulative effect.
Pity for people
Contact with waste printing inks can have a harmful effect on human health. Employees of printing companies who deal with paints and their waste are at risk of exposure to toxic substances. These substances can enter the body through the respiratory tract, skin or mucous membranes.
The main health risks include:
- respiratory diseases;
- allergic reactions;
- skin disease;
- disruption of the nervous system;
- carcinogenic effects.
Furthermore, improper waste management can lead to the contamination of residential areas and the creation of hazards for a wide range of the population. This is especially relevant for waste containing heavy metals and other dangerous components.
Ways to reduce harm
In order to reduce the damage caused by the waste of printing inks, it is necessary to apply a comprehensive approach, which includes methods of ecological waste management. The main measures can be:
- implementation of waste reduction technologies at the production stage;
- use of environmentally safe materials and alternative solvents;
- improvement of waste collection and storage (D15) processes;
- creating a control and monitoring system for waste storage and transportation;
- development of training and professional development programs for employees.
