Our packaging is100% recyclable. However, the recycling rate depends on the collection infrastructure and recycling centers in each country.

Here is the official response from our packaging supplier Tetra Pack Spain: http://www.tetrapak.com/en/:

“In general, it can be said that among the containers collected, at least 75% of the paper fibers of these containers are recycled.

As for plastic and aluminum, they each depend  factory.

In Spain, for example, most packaging is factory recycled  by Stora Enso in Barcelona. This company has invested in a pyrolysis operation. This pyrolysis process separates the plastic material from the aluminum and transforms a part  plastic and another part in gas which are used as an energy source for the recycling operation and the manufacture of paper. The aluminum is transformed into briquettes which are reused in various products in the aluminum industry.

Technically speaking, after the separation of aluminum in the pyrolysis reactor, the plastic could also be condensed again and reused as a material for other recycled products Plastic. But the factory decided to use it as an energy source, replacing natural gas.

In both cases, the end result is the same: put an end to waste! “
