What are LER Codes
The European Waste List (LER codes) is a classification system that groups different types of waste by materials, generating source, and nature. For this, the system uses a six-digit code that classifies waste into chapters and subchapters.
The LER code system was introduced by the European Union in its member countries in 2002. Spain incorporated it into its legislation through Order MAM/304/2002, a regulation that was later repealed and replaced by the current Law 7/2022, of April 8, on Waste and Contaminated Soils for a Circular Economy.
How to Interpret LER Codes
The six digits that make up the LER code have different meanings:
- The first two digits represent the chapters or sources of the waste.
- The next two digits identify the category.
- The last two digits identify the waste or group of wastes itself.
There are a total of 20 chapters. Codes from 01 to 12 and from 17 to 20 are called main codes or chapters. Each of them refers to a type of waste specific to a certain industry. Meanwhile, sections 13, 14, 15, and 16 act as a kind of miscellany, including special wastes and exceptions within the previous sections.
Locating a waste in the LER list involves identifying the source generating the waste and looking for the six-digit code. If the waste is not found in the main chapters, it should be searched for in chapters 13, 14, 15, or 16. If it is still not found in these sections, code 99 should be used.
An asterisk at the end of the LER code numbers indicates that the waste in question is highly hazardous.
