How the numbers work

01

Flat service fee

One annual fee per EPR stream covers your authorized representative, producer registry registration, SCRAP membership brokering, and the annual declaration. It never grows with your volume — see pricing.

02

Recycling fees, at cost

The SCRAP charges per kilogram of packaging you place on the Spanish market, by material. Cardboard is cheap (~€0.12/kg); flexible plastic is the priciest (up to €1.28/kg). These pass through at cost — full tariff explainer.

03

Minimums & one-times

Each scheme has a minimum fee of roughly €40–50/year, whatever your volume. Setup is a one-time €150; if you need a Spanish NIF first, that’s a separate one-time €449 (delivered in 24h). Nothing else is hiding in there.

Calculator questions

How accurate is this estimate?

Service fees are our real flat prices. Recycling fees use the published Ecoembes tariff ranges per material — your exact rate depends on the tariff bracket confirmed at onboarding, which is why we show honest low–high ranges rather than one precise-looking (but wrong) number.

Are the recycling fees your revenue?

No. SCRAP recycling fees (e.g. Ecoembes) pass through at cost and are itemized on every invoice. Our revenue is the flat annual service fee only — that's the whole point of the pricing model.

What's not included?

WEEE and battery scheme fees are category-based, so the calculator only includes their minimum floors. Unusual materials, glass-heavy mixes, and very high volumes deserve a precise quote — the free obligation check covers exactly that.
