Join Ecoembes

25 years encouraging circular packaging

More than 16,000 businesses rely on us today to help them meet their household waste-related legal requirements.  They are the ones who finance the recycling system for this packaging in Spain, which forms the foundation of the entire recycling management system.

The towns' collection of waste placed in the yellow (plastic, cans, and carton) and blue (paper and cardboard packaging) bins, as well as their subsequent sorting and recycling to create new raw materials, are paid for with this contribution. We complete a cycle using the circular economy's guiding principles in this manner.

With the evolution of society and waste regulations, Ecoembes is also transforming and now offers a solution for commercial and industrial packaging, for which companies will be responsible starting January 1, 2025.
