Ecolean sets up first package recycling point in Moscow

-

Ecolean has signed a new agreement with EcoLine, the leading waste operator in Moscow, and Ecolean’s lightweight packages have been accepted at the Zelenaya Tochka waste collection point at the Flacon design factory in Moscow since March 2020. The collected Ecolean packages are sent to the Tver Secondary Polymer Plant for recycling where they are used to manufacture new products – such as stationery, plastic furniture, polymeric sand pavers, and housewares.

“EcoLine Group’s strategy is aimed reducing waste by collecting and recycling as many packages as possible. So we are glad to see a growing number of packaging producers participating in collecting and recycling activities of their packages, because without their participation this process is impossible. The collection point at Flacon has become a test site for collaboration with a number of sustainability-minded packaging producers,” explains Elena Vishnyakova, deputy CEO of EcoLine.

Ecolean said its commitment is to provide lightweight packaging solutions for liquid food products combines food safety and consumer convenience with less environmental impact. “Our packages weigh about 50-60% less than conventional packaging concepts. This reduces environmental impacts during the entire life-cycle of the packages, including transportation, storage, use and disposal. To join forces with EcoLine and to offer yet another recycling opportunity is absolutely fantastic, and we are committed to continue to develop new ways of reducing waste and to increase recycling,” says Sergey Sirotin, managing director of Ecolean Russia & CIS.

EcoLine has been the leading waste collection and disposal operator in the Northern and Central districts of Moscow since 2014. The company provides a full range of waste management measures – from collecting, sorting and transporting to recycling plants. EcoLine Group serves more than 2 million people and 7,500 businesses in Moscow and annually collects and transports more than 700,000 tonnes of refuse. The entire waste stream is sorted at the company’s plants.
