Do you know what happens when you throw glass packaging in the green igloo-shaped bin? That you set in motion a perfect circle.
By recycling glass packaging, you are fighting against the climate change by avoiding CO2 emissions into the atmosphere. And you also take care of Earth, as you reuse natural resources.
This is what you achieve when you initiate the recycling chain. Learn about all its stages, from depositing the container in the bin to it becoming a new one.

You excitedly start cooking. You empty the jar, and now you have to separate it. We know that you hate leaving things in a mess, so we've come up with the solution: the Miniglú. It is the ideal mini-bin for your kitchen; it's so cute that you won't be able to resist it. And, you will be helping a charity, as the profits from their sale are destined to social causes.

Ecovidrio, el único SCRAP especializado que gestiona sobre el terreno la recogida selectiva y da respuesta a la sostenibilidad de los envases de vidrio desde el origen, ha presentado hoy su nuevo Plan Estratégico 2025-2030. Esta ambiciosa hoja de ruta contempla una inversión de 743 millones de euros con la que Ecovidrio se compromete a alcanzar los objetivos de tasa de reciclado de envases de vidrio que establece la legislación en 2027 – con tres años de antelación - y además a superar el 80% en 2030, cinco puntos por encima de lo que exige Europa para esta fecha.
Ecovidrio, la entidad sin ánimo de lucro encargada de la gestión del reciclado de residuos de envases de vidrio en España, ha celebrado un acto conmemorativo en el Congreso de los Diputados para hacer balance de todo lo logrado en los dos primeros años de la aplicación de la Ley 7/2022 de Residuos y Suelos Contaminados para una Economía Circular en España y reflexionar sobre los retos y oportunidades de futuro. El Secretario de Estado de Medioambiente, Hugo Morán, ha sido el encargado de realizar la clausura.
Ecovidrio y FEDIS HORECA, Federación Española de Empresas de Distribución a Hostelería y Restauración, se han unido para poner en marcha un programa que explora, por primera vez en nuestro país, el sistema de logística inversa existente en el circuito HORECA para incrementar la recogida selectiva de envases de vidrio de un solo uso. Esta iniciativa innovadora, que además contempla la puesta en marcha de diversos pilotos, pretende testar una vía de recuperación complementaria al contenedor verde con el fin de reciclar todos los residuos al 100% y convertirlos en nuevos envases.
