WHAT IS GERESCAL?
WHAT IS GERESCAL?

SCRAP for footwear and textiles in Spain. GERESCAL is a Collective Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) scheme—known in Spanish as an SCRAP—for footwear and textiles in Spain.

We emerged from within the industry to transform Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) into a shared opportunity—one where waste is no longer an end point, but rather a new source of value. We bring together companies committed to a common goal: driving a circular economy that is more efficient, responsible, and future-ready.
