DRS Hellas S.A. was established with Greece acquiring its own Deposit Return System. The body will implement the Deposit Return System (DRS) in accordance with national legislation and European standards. The establishment of the company marks the institutional starting point of a mechanism with full transparency, corporate governance and supervision by EOAN.
DRS Hellas was established with the participation of obligated beverage packaging producers from the water, soft drinks & juices, brewing and the Greek Supermarket Association with a participation rate of 25% from representatives per sector.
Its purpose is to organize and operate the Greek Guarantee Return System, which will manage with full transparency the return of PET and aluminum beverage packaging up to 3 liters, enhancing recycling and the country's transition to a more sustainable circular economy model.
The Board of Directors of DRS Hellas was formed as follows:
President: Maria Anargyrou Nikolits
Vice President 1: Konstantinos Koutsas
Vice President 2: Apostolos Petalas
Member: Angeliki Patroumba
Member: Ioannis Georgakellos

The DRS Hellas licensing file will be submitted immediately to the National Recycling Organization (EOAN) for evaluation and approval, as provided for by the institutional framework.
This process constitutes the next step for the full activation of the Guaranteed Recycling System in the country.
