Packaging materials protect products, ensure their conservation and hygiene, help with their identification and facilitate their transport and storage.

Nevertheless, the excessive consumption of packaged products has become an environmental problem which we must all resolve together.

What do I achieve by recycling packaging materials?

• I save raw materials and energy.
• I help to reduce the contamination of the air and water.
• I send less rubbish to controlled landfills.

How are packaging materials recycled?

• Once the packaging materials have been collected, they are taken to a plant for separation and classification and are sent subsequently to the corresponding recycling plants.
