In Sallent, recycling met culture

A street-side machine connected container returns with the town’s cultural life and local shops.

The municipal campaign “A Sallent, reciclar és Cultura” ran from 1 March to 31 May 2023, with a machine in plaça de la Verdura. Its rules offered cultural prizes and local shopping vouchers.

These two videos show the approach to the machine and a demonstration: inserting a container and collecting the receipt. An everyday street setting made container returns visible. The prizes belonged to that campaign, which has now ended.
