Spain is on the cusp of introducing a national deposit return system for beverage containers, to be implemented in 2026.
In this episode, Barry Snedden sits down with Miquel Roset, Director of Retorna, to discuss what must happen next to deliver the DRS on time. They also touch on Portugal’s newly announced DRS start date and why Iberian momentum matters, Retorna’s work co-founding the Global DRS Platform to support deposits across the Global South, and a preview of Madrid’s upcoming Global Conference of Experts – a first-rate gathering of system operators, NGOs, governments and industry to swap lessons and discuss best practice.
