3000 Drink Cans on the Market Square in Gliwice 2000 1125 JakubCZ

“Throw Your Cans into Yellow” is the slogan of the event organised in October in cooperation with the city of Gliwice to remind consumers what to do with empty drink cans.

A special installation consisting of three thousand aluminium cans was set up on the market square, joined by over 20 Every Can Counts volunteers. For more than 2 hours, the entire city centre was occupied by our team making positive noise about can recycling.

We chose Gliwice as many volunteers working on the Polish programme are students from local universities. We wanted to share this initiative with people and encourage them to recycle their cans wherever possible. Cooperation with the city helped attract the attention of local media. Check it out here.

Chaque Canette Compte – Red Bull Partnership Still Active Despite COVID 2560 1707 JakubCZ

After being back in the field with Tour de France, Chaque Canette Compte was active in Marseille despite the threat of COVID, accompanying its brand partner Red Bull.

CCC has managed recycling for all of Red Bull’s events in France for three years now, and specifically for one of the top skateboarding competitions in the world: The Bowl Rippers. In 2019, we were present at the brand’s five main events: RB FlugTag, RB 400, RB Bowl, the finale of RB Dance Your Style in Paris, and off course the Bowl Rippers.

As part of its partnership with CITEO (the French Green Dot authority), CCC manages overall recycling using our co-melting specific boxes where we highlight can recycling.

Last year, over 1.2 tons of packaging (and lot of Red Bull cans) were collected and recycled thanks to our presence at the main RB events.

The COVID-19 pandemic resulted in the cancellation of all major events in Austria. However, a few pop-up outdoor events were organized in Vienna in late summer, and of course we used the opportunity to contact our target group and inform them about can recycling, strapping on our newly-branded backpacks and masks.

We were also featured in the organizers’ promo video, so visitors were made aware of our brand before the event as well.

Awareness-Raising and Can Collection Campaign in the Streets of Ghent
Awareness-Raising and Can Collection Campaign in the Streets of Ghent 2500 1669 JakubCZ

On October 10, an Every Can Counts team equipped with can collection backpacks and a custom three-wheeler roamed the streets in the centre of Ghent, Belgium, to raise awareness about the sorting and recycling of cans.

On that sunny Saturday, the enthusiastic team engaged with passers-by consuming cans in the historic heart of Ghent and explained why it is so important to recycle aluminium cans even while consuming them on-the-go.

While the drink can recycling rate in Belgium stands at 98%, almost one can out of two is recovered from incinerator bottom ash, meaning that half of all cans are placed in the wrong waste bin.

The activities in Ghent were supported with a campaign on Instagram and Facebook, a press release, and resulted in a two-minute national radio interview.

Burning Cube Event
Burning Cube Event 1500 2250 JakubCZ

The Recan Foundation and the Vinča Belo Brdo Archaeological Site joined forces to promote metal recycling and its positive impact on the eco-stability of our planet. The endless recyclability of metal was the central topic of an event organised in the Barutana in Belgrade.

It provided an opportunity to combine the missions of Recan and Vinča in a unique way. Support was also provided by the EXIT Foundation, part of the renowned festival team with a special focus on environmental protection.

The prehistoric site in Vinča at Belo Brdo hill on the Danube bank represents a globally-recognised archaeological site with artefacts dating from 5300 to 4600 B.C. The Vincan culture made a mark in numerous ways, and the link with the Recan Foundation lies in the fact that Vincan culture was the first to start melting metal. LPG masažas, plaukų šalinimas – depiliacija lazeriu Vilniuje patrauklia kaina oblakasalon.lt As metals have been recycled so many times throughout history, the molecules that were melted in Vinča for the first time have been in circulation to the present day.
