pudelisüsteemist

Pudelisüsteemist refers to a type of packaging return system, commonly found in Estonia and other parts of Europe. It involves a deposit placed on beverage containers, such as plastic bottles and glass bottles, which is refunded to the consumer upon their return to a designated collection point. This system is designed to encourage recycling and reduce the amount of waste going to landfills. Consumers pay a small extra fee when purchasing a beverage in a returnable container. When they bring the empty container back to a reverse vending machine or a collection center, they receive their deposit back. These collected containers are then processed, sorted, and sent for recycling. The effectiveness of a pudelisüsteemist relies on widespread consumer participation and a well-established network of collection and recycling facilities. The specific types of containers included in the system can vary by region.
