Deposit-return system set to accelerate PHL circularity

Quick Summary:

THE Royal Norwegian Embassy, the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR), Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (German Agency for International Development, or GIZ), and World Wildlife Fund (WWF) hosted a workshop on September 24 centered on the continued promotion of the inception of the deposit-return system (DRS) as a complimenting mechanism for extended producers responsibility (EPR) in the Philippines.

For an archipelago like the Philippines, economy of scale is a pivotal element for promotion and feasibility of the recycling sector.

DRS is known for achieving the highest collection for beverage containers such as PET, metal cans, glass and liquid paper board, compared to any other EPR scheme.
