Uruguay seeks to strengthen measures to ensure packaging recycling

Companies in Uruguay have failed to meet regulatory recycling targets, prompting the Ministry of the Environment to consider corrective measures before 2025.

Current regulations require companies to recycle a certain percentage of the packaging they put on the market. However, many have failed to meet these requirements, leading to an increase in waste that impacts the environment and contradicts the country's sustainability goals.


Towards a necessary change

The Minister of the Environment, Robert Bouvier, said that sanctions are being considered for companies that fail to meet their responsibilities, as well as incentives for those that adopt responsible practices. These measures are designed to strengthen oversight, encourage compliance with environmental regulations, and move toward a circular economy.


The Importance of Corporate Responsibility

Packaging recycling not only reduces pollution but is also key to protecting the environment and public health. In this context, the commitment of companies is essential to achieve sustainable development that benefits society as a whole.


At Landopp, we believe that sustainability should be a priority for all companies. Situations like this reinforce the need for innovative solutions and responsible waste management. We will continue to work to inspire and offer alternatives that contribute to a greener and more conscious future.
