- Recycling rate increases: The recycling rate in Spain is now the second highest in Europe, trailing only that of Germany. In 2015, Spaniards recycled 1.3 million tonnes of packaging, which accounted for 74.8% of total packaging in that year, according to the association Ecoembes. This represents an increase from the 72% of the total packaging recycled in 2014 although still far from the goal of 80% of total packaging recycled by 2020.
