¿Cómo funcionan los envases de un solo uso y los reutilizables dentro de los Sistemas de Depósito y Retorno?
Es sencillo: se devuelven en el mismo punto de retorno. Y ahí, cada envase inicia su recorrido para convertirse nuevamente en un envase reciclado o reutilizado, y así volver a las tiendas.

Consumers return their empty containers to a designated return point. From there, each container begins its journey to become either a refillable or a recycled package, eventually making its way back to the store shelf.

In 2026, Uruguay will implement a Deposit Return System #DRS, becoming the first country in South America to apply this model for single-use beverage cans and plastic and glass bottles.
Currently, only 4% of these containers are recovered. What recovery rate do you think the new DRS will achieve? 🌍📈

En 2026, Uruguay implementará un Sistema de Depósito y Reembolso, convirtiéndose en el primer país de América del Sur en aplicar este sistema para latas y botellas de plástico y de vidrio de un solo uso. Actualmente, solo se recupera el 4% de estos envases en Uruguay. ¿Hasta dónde llegarán? 📈🇺🇾 #sddr
