- Every material — One contribution per material, paid to CONAI.
Italy has one national packaging consortium. There is no choice of scheme: a producer joins CONAI, and CONAI works through six material consortia.
- CONAI — the national consortium, for every packaging material
## The material consortia
Each material has its own consortium under CONAI. You do not contract them separately: your CONAI membership covers every material.
- Ricrea, CiAl, Comieco, Rilegno, Corepla, CoReVe — the six material consortia under CONAI
## What else is regulated in Italy
Packaging runs through CONAI. Electrical equipment and batteries have their own registers and schemes, and every producer under an EPR regime is to be recorded in the national register, RENAP.
| Flow | Register | Representative | Who registers you |
|---|---|---|---|
| Packaging (imballaggi) | CONAI | Mandatory since 12 Aug 2026 | We do, as your representative |
| Electrical and electronic equipment | Registro AEE | Mandatory | We do — quoted separately |
| Batteries and accumulators | Registro pile | Mandatory | We do — quoted separately |
