Wastes from the manufacture, formulation, supply and use (MFSU) of coatings (paints, varnishes and vitreous enamels), adhesives, sealants and printing inks

Chapter 08 covers manufacture and use of paints, varnishes, adhesives, sealants and printing inks. Waste paint from a construction job can still belong here when the entry says so. Do not push it into chapter 17 just because it left a building site.

Digital waste tracking

Receiving sites must report this code to DWTS.

Permitted receiving sites in England and Wales report each inbound load to the Digital Waste Tracking Service, and the EWC code is part of that record. WEEE Manager is listed on GOV.UK and sends the code with the rest of the receipt through the API.
