Do you know the ‘Ecospots’?
The ‘Ecospot’ pilot project promotes the recycling of plastic packaging for yogurts and dairy desserts in the Greater Porto area. This initiative by MC (from the SONAE group), is co-financed by Sociedade Ponto Verde, in partnership with PIEP – Innovation in Polymer Engineering, Intraplás, and TOMRA.
The project runs until July 31st, in the 11 selected Continente stores and 12 school groups in the Greater Porto area. During this period, everyone can participate by depositing their packages of yogurt and dairy desserts in the available ‘Ecospots’.
With the partnership of 12 school groups in the Greater Porto area, more than 50 schools can participate. With this initiative, school groups in the respective region receive donations for the amount of packaging collected, reaching up to 1500 euros.
