What Green Points are:
Green Points are organized facilities used for recycling and/or environmental education that are located inside or outside urban areas.
They provide incentives for citizens to recycle. Green Points’ model is implemented in many European countries for years, and now, under the new national waste legislation, it will be as well adopted by the majority of Greek municipalities.

In addition to recycling facilities, they should have a training room and activities for promoting recycling purposes.
Mobile Green Points:
Mobile Green Point is a specially designed vehicle that moves in the city and collects materials for recycling or re-use. We can supply municipalities with a mobile green point or we can operate it on its behalf. This is an ideal solution for cases where there is no suitable area to construct a green point.
