Orase Curate (Clean Cities), the itinerant ECOTIC campaign, dedicated to the collection of used electrical and electronic equipment from the urban environment, makes a new stop, this time, in Cluj-Napoca.

In period July 23 - 28, 2018, ECOTIC in partnership with the City Hall of Cluj-Napoca and Rosal Grup, encourages the citizens of Cluj-Napoca to hand over correctly for recycling waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE), following that for the delivery of a waste of at least 5kg cumulated, to receive an instant prize.

Romania, as an EU member state, has the obligation to reach a target of 45% collection of waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) by 2020. In this regard, ECOTIC continues its efforts to raise awareness among the population.

"Clean cities" is the ECOTIC campaign that pursues this goal in the urban environment. Together with local public and environmental authorities, ECOTIC has informed and continues to inform residents of dozens of cities across the country about the need to collect WEEE, providing specialized collection points.
