The GreenPak COOP
|
GreenPak has migrated from a private limited company to a Co-Operative Society Limited owned by its members. As a COOP, the GreenPak Organisation has strengthened its shareholding base with added benefits to the members. Benefits include:
This is a major achievement reaffirming GreenPak's not-for-profit policy and that GreenPak runs a Compliance Scheme at the least possible cost. With over 1000 members, GreenPak remains the largest waste recovery scheme in Malta. |

Green Dot Malta - PRO EUROPE Member
PRO EUROPE is the umbrella organisation for European packaging waste recovery and recycling schemes which mainly use the "Green Dot" trademark as a financing symbol. PRO EUROPE is the general licensor of the "Green Dot" trademark.
Why GreenPak Exists
Importers, manufacturers, producers or anyone doing trade in the Maltese market is required to recover and recycle the packaging generated through such an activity. By joining the GreenPak Scheme, any operator automatically transfers these obligations onto the scheme.
GreenPak, established in 2004, operates a compliance scheme that recovers and recycles packaging waste in the Maltese Islands.
The GreenPak Team
GreenPak is driven by a young and dynamic team towards a common goal - providing environmental sustainability at economic viability for the benefit of the public and industry.
Crucial to its work, GreenPak runs efficient recycling systems, extensive education programme and development of sustainable practices with industry.

LIFE + Project
GreenPak together with its Green Dot counterparts in Cyprus, Greece and France, has been awarded funds under the European Union's Life+ Programme to conduct a technical study on the EU-wide packaging waste recovery directives, which are believed to penalize islands such as Malta whose size realities make it impossible to reach overall targets set.
