Pupils in Kreševo Learn How Packaging Waste Reaches Recycling
Kreševo, 10 November 2026 - What happens to a plastic bottle, cardboard box or glass jar after we place it in the appropriate bin?
This was one of the questions through which pupils at Dr. Boris Ćorić Primary School in Kreševo learned about the journey of packaging waste from separation and collection to recycling.
As part of the cooperation between Ekopak and CETAP, another educational workshop was held during which pupils learned about different types of packaging, when packaging becomes waste, why it is important to separate packaging waste from municipal waste, and what happens to it after separate collection.
Through discussion, practical examples and interactive activities, pupils were able to immediately apply what they had learned and gain a better understanding of the entire process – from placing packaging waste in the appropriate bin, through collection and sorting, to directing it to recycling.
Through educational activities like this, Ekopak and CETAP continue to teach children about the importance of packaging waste separation and recycling, while helping them develop knowledge and habits they can apply in their everyday lives.
