Wet wipes are made of soft non-woven fabric soaked in liquid. It’s always worth having them with you when you unexpectedly get your hands dirty or your lipstick smudges. Disposable hygiene products are very convenient to use and make it easier to keep clean throughout the day. However, they require proper disposal so as not to harm the environment.
Which bin should we put wet wipes into? Not for waste paper at all
After using wet wipes, people often throw them down the toilet, which damages sewage pumps and stops the flow of water. The tissue that goes into the toilet stretches and becomes a string that wraps around the pump and prevents it from working. For this reason, you cannot put it there under any circumstances. The segregation rules clearly define what we should do with wet wipes. They should go into the black mixed waste container. They are not recyclable, so they cannot be thrown into the blue paper bin.
What to throw into the mix? Not only wipes are on the list
Other products should also be thrown into the same container. These include: masks, disposable gloves, pads, sanitary pads, tampons, diapers, wipes, cotton buds, nail polish bottles, deodorants and cotton pads. Even if products are made of biodegradable materials, they must not be disposed of in bio-waste after use. Shampoo, conditioner and cream bottles should go into the metal and plastic container.
