Reverse Logistics by Waste Collectors Cooperatives

In 2013, in collaboration with the National Association of Catadores (waste pickers), BVRio developed a Reverse Logistics Credits’ system to assist companies to meet their obligations under the solid waste legislation while rewarding Catadores for the reverse logistics’ service and recycling provided. The credits’ certificates ensure a certain amount of material was responsibly disposed of. These credits are issued and sold by cooperatives of Catadores and purchased by producers and/or importers who need to comply with the legislation- in other words, it represents an additional revenue derived from the environmental service provided, apart from the sale of recyclable materials.
