Sweden’s DRS operator Returpack is increasing the deposit fee for consumers returning their empty PET bottles and aluminum cans. The goal of the deposit increase is to encourage consumers to return more empty products. The fees are raised from SEK1 (US$0.09) to SEK2 (US$0.18) on aluminum cans and small PET bottles and from SEK2 to SEK3 (US$0.27) on large PET bottles.
