What is EWC code 08 01 17?

08 01 17 is the European Waste Catalogue (List of Waste) code for wastes from paint or varnish removal containing organic solvents or other hazardous substances. It sits in chapter 08 (wastes from the manufacture, formulation, supply and use (mfsu) of coatings (paints, varnishes and vitreous enamels), adhesives, sealants and printing inks). You use this six-digit code to classify the waste on a waste transfer note, a hazardous waste consignment note, or a Digital Waste Tracking record.

This is a hazardous waste code. Movements of hazardous waste need a hazardous waste consignment note (not an ordinary waste transfer note), and consignment notes must be kept for at least 3 years.
