RetuRO DRS

Profile

RetuRO DRS has implemented Romania’s deposit return system, the most complex in the world, integrating beverage producers, retailers, and consumers nationwide. For over a year, it has transformed packaging waste through a unique circular economy initiative, where plastic, aluminum, and glass beverage containers are collected and repurposed into reusable resources, contributing to a cleaner environment and helping Romania meet European collection targets.

By collecting over 3.3 billion containers and sending more than 231,000 tonnes of material to recyclers in its recently completed first year, RetuRO is setting a global benchmark, proving its success and impact while serving as a model of best practices.
