Recycle PET oil bottles in the municipal glass container?

There is a recycling symbol on PET oil bottles (e.g. grape seed oil, 50 cl, Art. 1033.421). What does this mean? According to your recommendation (https://generation-m.migros.ch/de/nachhaltig-leben/infografiken/recycling-symbole.html), this symbol means: GLASS, return options in the municipality. Are you sure that the glass companies are happy with the Migros PET oil bottles?

Hello migrosclaraplatz, thank you for your contribution. The symbol for plastic bottles is shown on the product. I would be happy to send you the link for our recycling guide: https://generation-m.migros.ch/de/nachhaltig-leben/recycling-guide.html#heading-plastikflaschen. The symbol for glass looks similar - just with glass bottles and not plastic bottles. You can dispose of glass at the municipal disposal stations. Kind regards, Luisa

Dear Luisa, why don't you physically pick up a real bottle from the Migros rack and look at the actual recycling symbol. And then you too will see that the wrong symbol is printed on it. Namely the one with the glass.

Hello migrosclaraplatz, thank you very much for your feedback. Please excuse the misunderstanding, you are of course right. The specialist department informed me that they will adapt the packaging next year and then also print the correct recycling symbol. Kind regards, Richi
