During the Lechona Festival, held on June 27, 28, and 29, we raised awareness among more than 55 people about the importance of source separation and proper management of recyclable materials. Together with the Local Mayor’s Office of Rafael Uribe Uribe, the Association of Environmental Recyclers ASOREAMB, and DARNEL, we trained more than 50 participating lechona businesses on responsible practices for the correct separation of recyclable waste. As part of this initiative, we provided two white bags made from 100% recycled material, along with instructions on the types of recyclable materials that could be placed inside them, including clean expanded polystyrene (EPS) without organic waste, plastic bottles and caps, paper and cardboard, metals such as cans, and glass bottles (not broken). In addition, the association and the local government collected these materials every two hours, helping keep the establishments and the festival organized while ensuring that attendees could enjoy a better experience. At Biocirculo, we transform plastic bottles and expanded polystyrene (EPS) into new opportunities, promoting the circular economy and responsible waste management. You can also contribute to change by separating waste at home. Would you like to receive these awareness activities for your organization?
