Special waste is produced by industries and companies and differs from municipal waste because it is not managed by public administration operators on the basis of contributions paid by citizens but is managed and disposed of by a system of private companies.
Proper management of these materials is crucial to reduce environmental pollution and the impact that human activities have on our planet. For these reasons, laws have been enacted that severely punish those who abandon special waste or do not correctly fulfill the duties enshrined in the relevant regulations.
