Why Join the GreenPak Scheme?

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, an operator automatically transfers these obligations onto the scheme. The legal requirements are defined in LN277 of 2006.
