Italian Tobacco Retailers Launch E-cigarette Recycling Initiative in 2024
Italian tobacco retailers launch e-cigarette recycling campaign on Jan. 17, 2024, in partnership with Logista Italia and the Italian Tobacco Federation.

According to ilmessaggero, on January 17, 2024, tobacco retailers in Italy initiated an e-cigarette recycling campaign. This project was jointly launched by Logista Italia and the Italian Tobacco Federation to address the issue of end-of-life e-cigarette devices.

 

By setting up dedicated collection points, consumers can dispose of used e-cigarette devices responsibly and prevent any adverse environmental impacts while purchasing tobacco products.

 

Logista offers a simple recycling program where users can simply place their e-cigarettes into dedicated collection boxes at tobacco retail points, and Logista will handle the rest of the process. Additionally, users do not need to purchase any new equipment to participate in the recycling program. At the same time, Logista reports the relevant data on recycling and transportation to the Ministry of Environment (Ministero dell'Ambiente), ensuring full traceability throughout the entire process.
