About RetuRO
RetuRO is a company established by a consortium of three private shareholders and one public shareholder and appointed by law as administrator of the Deposit-Return System.
The company was formed as a dually managed company, based on the not-for-profit principle, which means that it has undertaken in its articles of association to reinvest any profits exclusively in the development of the system.
