Used packaging collection sites are organized in a national urban network consisting of ecoponto recycling bins, ecocentres and door-to-door collection.
The Urban Waste Management Systems (SGRU) and municipalities are responsible for managing these sites. With the launch of the Deposit and Return System pilot projects, Electrão installed three machines for the collection of beverage packaging, which are part of its collection network.
Collection sites
Operational Partners
Waste is sent to operational partners that ensure the transportation, sorting and treatment of used packaging.
As part of the “Bandeiras Verdes” Protocol, a pilot project was developed to increase glass recycling in the HORECA sector. The project aimed to demonstrate that raising awareness of the Horeca channel can have an effect on the recycling of this type of material.
