Ekopak provided wastebins for the establishment of seven eco-island, co-financed the construction and equipping of the area, and will in the future carry out educational and promotional activities aimed at raising awareness on proper disposal and recycling of packaging waste.

We invite all producers, importers, fillers, distributors, packers to join to Ekopak and at the lowest sustainable cost meet their legal obligations and to thereby participate financially in the development of systems that Ekopak builds based on the best practices and experience of other memers of PRO EUROPE.
