DPG Deposit Labels

Schreiner PrinTrust is a certified security printer for DPG deposit labels and specifically for the DPG cover-label.

Cans with DPG deposit labels

The mandatory deposit on certain one-way beverage bottles has existed in Germany since 2003. At the beginning of 2022, the system was extended to additional containers: Plastic one-way beverage bottles with a capacity of 3 l and beverage cans are now generally subject to mandatory deposits. Consequently, manufacturers or importers of beverages that have to comply with this requirement must provide their products with approved DPG deposit labels. Unless this is done directly on the packaging, marking by a so-called cover-label is compulsory. The sale of relevant products without such deposit markings is not permissible.

Small Label, High-Level Requirements

Due to the central importance of marking in the DPG system, the requirements and security specifications to be met by approved printers are correspondingly high and the labels can be purchased exclusively from certified security printers such as Schreiner PrinTrust.
