Deposit return
What does SGR mean in Romania?
SGR is Romania’s deposit-return system for eligible beverage packaging. Eligible containers carry the scheme identification required for the Romanian system.
Complete answer
The answer
The practical check is the on-pack scheme marking together with the barcode and eligibility rules. The container should be empty and kept in a condition that allows the return system to identify it.
Return can be made through participating return points according to the scheme. Packaging outside the system still needs to follow the applicable recycling or waste route rather than being treated as deposit-bearing.
What to do
- Look for the Romanian SGR identification.
- Keep the barcode and container readable.
- Use a participating return point.
