“Through a solid Return Your Empties program we collect packaging waste from our customers and ensure it turns to something useful.
Plastic is turned into recycled bottles or functional design items At the Recycling Facility we create everyday art objects out of waste tubes. We create recycled raw material out of empty bottles for our all-new recycled bottles.
A processing line of sorting, washing, melting, and shaping to molds -designed by the KORRES Design Lab-, transforming empties into beautiful objects gifted to our consumers as a reward for being part of this effort.
Paper reforms. All types of boxes and paper stands are used to produce merchandising, furniture, recycled carton gift boxes, and more. Glass continues its life. A perpetual material that always finds its way back to usage.
Our Recycle Lab is all about Sustainability and Giving back. It’s a path to a cleaner planet. It's a choice to live with ethos and in harmony with nature.”

What I love:
2. Apostolakis Andreas, Recycle Lab Coordinator
I love gymnastics, moutaineering, music, and assemblying random parts to a new object. I remember myself as a kid always turning broken toys to something new. In a way I am still doing the same thing. Empty bottles are transformed to combs, tiles, pencil cases, to new bottles. I upcycle and recycle everything, including dozens of empty tubes of my all-time favourite Body Cream with sea salt notes (!) and extra virging olive oil from Crete -my all-time favourite summer destination.
