Beverage bottles that can be returned in the new system are gradually appearing in stores
At more than 1,400 points nationwide, MOHU Mol Hulladékfászállógi Zrt. installed around 1,800 returnable machines by the beginning of January, the bottles, cans, and bottles with a logo indicating returnability will gradually appear in stores – the company informed MTI.
The MOHU drew attention to the fact that until June 30, 2024, manufacturers can still market bottles without markings, so consumers will only slowly and gradually find returnable products on store shelves.
It will be possible to exchange the packaging that has the exchange logo and for which the customer paid the exchange fee. The currently used, non-returnable packaging must still be thrown in the selective bin.
MOHU also installed and commissioned the vending machines in stores larger than 400 square meters with a contract and in smaller stores that have joined voluntarily so far. The installation of the machines will continue in 2024, the MOHU is constantly installing the machines and waiting for the switching points that want to join voluntarily, they said.
