[To Business Operators] (Alert) How to dispose of spray cans
Last update date April 1, 2023
Recently, an explosion and fire accident occurred, which is thought to be caused by flammable gas released in connection with the treatment of waste aerosol products such as spray cans.
The Waste Management Law stipulates that industrial waste is handled and disposed of responsibly by contracting a collection / transportation company or a disposal company for each type of industrial waste.
Regarding the treatment of waste aerosol products such as spray cans, the Aerosol Product Processing Countermeasures Council, which consists of 10 related organizations such as the Japan Aerosol Association, has been working to prevent the occurrence of accidents. Please refer to the Guidelines for Safe Disposal of Aerosol Products.
