The circular economy takes the field and becomes the protagonist of the E-Work Arena in Busto Arsizio thanks to the partnership between COREPLA and Uyba Volley, the Italian women's volleyball club in the A1 series. The two companies presented Recopet recently: The first eco-compactor for the collection and recycling of PET bottles for food use to enter a sports arena.
The innovative Recopet project, also developed in collaboration with Interzero, is aimed at making citizens and fans aware of virtuous behavior towards the environment and at promoting the process, which allows used PET bottles to be transformed into new bottles (bottle-to-bottle).
The use of the new eco-compactor is very simple, thanks to the Recopet App, which allows citizens to learn the correct use of the machinery quickly and easily. All fans who choose to participate in this virtuous circle will be guaranteed numerous prizes related to their favorite team for the delivery of PET bottles.
“COREPLA has always believed that sustainability stems from a shared commitment, which is why the agreement signed with UYBA Volleyball is very important to us. We share fundamental values, such as mutual responsibility, cooperation and respect for the community and the environment – declared the president of Corepla Giovanni Cassuti. Among our objectives, there is that of optimizing the effectiveness of the dedicated collection of plastic packaging through an increasingly widespread diffusion of eco-compactors to contribute to the achievement of both national and European collection and recycling objectives. Through this agreement with Uyba Volley we are happy to team up for our mission, making our own the values of sport and the competitive spirit, that will lead the fans and the players themselves to be part of the change, thus contributing to the construction of a more sustainable future ”.
