MrPET Unes: on Saturday, July 17, 2010 Savigliano back to the award-winning collection

MrPET and Unes are pleased to announce the opening of a new location MrPET Savigliano to U2 at the store site via Torino 223.

The opening ceremony will take place Saturday, July 17 and will be an opportunity for information and education aimed at all citizens.

'll show you the project MrPET and will reply to the doubts and curiosity Saviglianese.
will also be presented the new web portal MrPET (www.mrpet-recycling.com), which collects a few weeks ago all the news about the project, the site is aimed directly to the public with useful tips for environmentally friendly and convenient shopping.

The goal of the day is to spread the awareness that the PET bottle is a resource and an economic and environmental value.

This Unes rewards the act of bringing the packages to the machine by giving loyalty points for holders of environmentally friendly MrPET; points that grow in proportion to the amount of recycled bottles and transform themselves into discounts and incentives to enable a cost conveniente e ecologica.

La raccolta differenziata di qualità salva le risorse del pianeta e riduce l'inquinamento in termini di CO2 prodotta.

Sabato 17 luglio coloro che sono in possesso di una tessera MrPET riceveranno, per ogni 100 punti già caricati, una confezione da sei bottiglie di acqua minerale Valmora da 1,5 l; un omaggio per ringraziare i saviglianesi che nel corso degli anni hanno aderito al progetto MrPET, migliorandolo con i propri consigli e trasformandolo, grazie all'impegno nella raccolta, in un esempio di successo a livello europeo.

Sono infatti i cittadini i protagonisti del sistema, coloro che, portando le bottiglie alle postazioni MrPET , danno il via alla filiera di valorizzazione del PET.

Con le bottiglie raccolte si produce il KEOREX ®, una plastica dalle altissime qualità fisico-meccaniche, riciclabile all’infinito e trasparente come il PET vergine.

Di KEOREX ® sono fatti, ad esempio, i carrelli e i cestini per la spesa in uso in miglia di punti vendita in Italia e nel mondo: si tratta della linea eko-logic® Shop to Shop della società Origine Sarl ( http://www.originesarl.com/ ).

This leaves the shop in the PET bottle-shaped and will fall as a tool for shopping, and customers can experience the result of environmental action.

MrPET and Unes invite citizenship Saviglianese Saturday, July 17 at the store on Via Torino 223 U2: the inauguration of the station MrPET will be an opportunity to discuss the ethics and economics to help save the environment.

Best Scope For The Money

Mineral water 'carbon neutral'

St. Benedict presents the first results of the project for the reduction of C02 emissions.

Source San Benedetto Scorzè (Venice) wants to introduce on the market, with the bottle Easy, the first mineral water "carbon neutral", ie emissions (offset) of CO2 equal to zero .

The project, launched in collaboration with the Ministry of Environment, is the first step of the voluntary agreement signed by the company for the promotion of joint projects aimed at the analysis e alla neutralizzazione dell’impatto sul clima dell’acqua imbottigliata.

Il primo risultato del programma è stato presentato lunedì scorso dal presidente di San Benedetto Spa, Enrico Zoppas (nella foto), alla presenza del Sottosegretario all’Ambiente, on. Roberto Menia e del Direttore generale del Ministero dell’Ambiente, Corrado Clini.

Si tratta della misurazione della Carbon Footprint a livello globale e della neutralizzazione dell’impronta per un primo formato.

Sono state infatti stimate le emissioni di CO2 per l’intero product life cycle of all sizes water brand San Benedetto: the raw materials used for packaging to recycle post-consumer bottles.

So have been identified for measures that will reduce or offset emissions in the period 2009-2012.

As the first carbon neutral goal was selected the Easy Pet 1 liter, with an estimated 2,000 tons of CO2 emissions.

These emissions have been neutralized through the purchase of carbon credits such as "Toward" resulting from the implementation, in Thailand, a plant generating heat energy from biogas recovered.

More generally, the company aims to reduce emissions by working on multiple fronts.

Tri The project, for example, provides for the combined production of heat, cold and electricity as an energy source by using rapeseed oil, the project was presented to ENEL for the necessary permissions.

At the same time will be made more efficient air-conditioning units by the recovery heat 30% of the areas of the bottling plant in Scoresby, for which he is currently checking the feasibility.

There is also an area that covers the energy optimization of bottling plants, with the introduction of high efficiency motors and installation of inverters; thirty engines of this type are already in the wards.

So we worked on the bottle, through a weight reduction (and therefore used PET) that affected the sizes 0.5 lt, 1.0 lt, 1.5 lt and 2.0 lt. The company is also studying the closed-loop recycling of packaging for which is "technologically ready, pending the introduction of the national legislation of reference."

Meanwhile, in April has started a pilot at some outlets of the Group Pam for the collection of PET bottles in order to start their recovery from authorized companies.

The emission reduction also involves the installation of photovoltaic modules on some covers and storage yards (have already begun the paperwork) and improving the efficiency the production of compressed air through a system of checking the operation of compressors that uses innovative technology to activate and modulate the flow machines depending on the request of the establishment.
