In this way, Ekopak continues to implement educational projects aimed at raising the awareness of citizens about the importance of separate disposal and recycling of packaging waste. Municipality of Novi Travnik and its Public Utility Company "Vilenica Cistoca" are in Ekopak's System and they significantly contribute to the fulfillment of the prescribed goals for the recycling of packaging waste. "Vilenica Cistoca" thus significantly reduces the amount of municipal waste that does not end up at the "Moscanica" landfill, but it is sent through the Ekopak's system to recycling process.
