Metal packaging
All types of metal waste can be recycled several times over. 
The amount of metal packaging collected in public areas and households in the City of Zagreb 2013-2016
All types of metal waste can be recycled several times over. They should therefore be collected separately and deposited in the yellow recycling bins set up in public areas and at recycling centres.

Recycling 1 ton of aluminium cans saves 5 tonnes of bauxite and requires 20 times less energy.

The production of 1 ton of raw aluminium requires as many as 600,000 litres of water and 15,000 kWh of electricity!

Metal packaging including:
  • Cans containing paint, varnish and oil residue,
  • Cans containing chemical residue,
  • Bottles and cans that contained flammable and explosive fluids,
  • Pressurized bottles and cans (e.g. propane/butane tanks)

should be treated as hazardous waste and deposited at the recycling centre Susedgrad - Stenjevec, Gospodska ulica 20 (phone 3451-536, 099 8022 161), recycling centre Špansko, D.Cesarića 2a (phone: 091 2678 118) or a mobile recycling centre.
