Published on June 27, 2018.-

Las tasas de reciclaje o valorización de residuos van en alza en Chile, aún las cifras son insignificantes en comparación con países europeos. En ese contexto, REP Law 20.920, que establece la responsabilidad extendida del productor, incentivarán ese tipo de prácticas. Estas herramientas hacen posible la llamada circular economy, que implica rediseñar nuestro sistema productivo, en el cual debemos aprovechar el mayor porcentaje de los residuos que generan nuestras actividades productivas de forma limpia y sustentable.

Joost Meijer, professional from the Office of Waste and Environmental Risk of the Ministry of the Environment (MMA), highlights the advances that this regulation incorporates to improve the management of industrial waste, placing emphasis on its prevention and recovery. «For this, the REP Law creates new instruments: Ecodesign of priority products such as packaging; certification, labeling and labeling of one or more products; deposit and refund systems; mechanisms of separation at source and selective collection of waste; mechanisms to ensure an environmentally sound management of the same; and mechanisms to prevent their generation ”, he points out.
