The solution lies in Ecogots’ reusable cups"},"content":{"rendered":"\n

In the world of events, sustainability is no longer optional: it is a legal and social requirement. If you organise festivals or large events, you need to adapt to current packaging regulations<\/strong> and apply responsible practices. In this context, Ecogots <\/strong>offers a comprehensive solution that combines legal compliance, sustainability and technology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What regulations apply to cups at festivals?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Standard UNE-EN 13429:2005<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This European standard establishes the requirements that reusable containers<\/strong> must meet, ensuring that they can be used multiple times without compromising safety or functionality. Ecogots is officially certified to comply with this standard<\/strong>, ensuring that our cups are designed to be durable, safe and environmentally friendly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Royal Decree 1055\/20229:2005<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This decree regulates the management of packaging<\/strong> and packaging waste<\/strong> in Spain, and has direct implications for events such as festivals. It requires traceability, collection and reuse or recycling<\/strong> of all packaging used. In other words, the use of single-use cups without control of their final destination is no longer allowed.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cup reuse at festivals: how it works<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

At Ecogots we propose a deposit return system<\/strong> for festivals and events:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  • The user pays a small deposit for the reusable cup.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • During the event, he can use it as many times as he wants.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • At the end of the event, if he returns it, he gets his money back.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • If he decides to keep it, the cup remains useful and sustainable and also becomes a souvenir of the event.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    Similarly, if the festival uses generic design cups<\/strong>, these can be stored, washed and used in future editions. On the other hand, if a customized design with specific dates or branding is chosen, the cups are properly recycled<\/strong> to manufacture new products. This avoids waste and maintains the environmental commitment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Technology and traceability for intelligent management<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    Each Ecogots cup incorporates a unique QR code on its base. This code allows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    • Follow the life cycle of the vessel.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Associate it to a user in case of automated systems.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Efficiently manage the return of the deposit by means of reading machines.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      This facilitates the traceability required by law and provides added value in terms of transparency, control and logistics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      What is the difference between recycling and reusing?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

      Although both processes are sustainable, reuse is always preferable<\/strong> to recycling, as it avoids the consumption of additional resources. At Ecogots we encourage reuse, but we also ensure responsible recycling when necessary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      In addition, we use Oryzite<\/strong>, an innovative material obtained from rice husk biomass, which reduces our carbon footprint and reinforces our commitment to a more natural and circular production model.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
