What is EWC code 15 01 11?
15 01 11 is the European Waste Catalogue (List of Waste) code for metallic packaging containing a hazardous solid porous matrix (for example asbestos), including empty pressure containers. It sits in chapter 15 (waste packaging; absorbents, wiping cloths, filter materials and protective clothing not otherwise specified). 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.
