The company has backed the ‘Collective Recycling Project’, which aims to recycle about 1,200 tonnes of waste per year through the installation of five recycling centres in the capital of Santiago.
Nestlé signed a partnership with Walmart Chile, Coca-Cola Chile, PepsiCo and Unilever in a joint collaboration to improve waste management in the country.
The new sites, managed by Triciclos, an organisation specialised in recycling and sustainable consumption, are providing consumers with an easy and efficient way to recycle their household waste.
Each centre can recycle about 20 different types of materials such as glass, PET plastic, aluminium, paper, cardboard and clothes, avoiding further waste to landfill.
