Lealtad Verde provides a circular‑economy platform that uses reverse vending machines to automatically sort and value plastic bottles, aluminum cans and other containers, paying users in cash or digital credits. The system tracks each deposit, calculates carbon‑offset impact, and offers analytics dashboards for retailers, municipalities and manufacturers while the companion app lets consumers locate machines, monitor recycling activity and redeem sustainable discounts.

Problem
Consumers and businesses often lack convenient, automated ways to separate, classify, and monetize post‑consumer waste, leading to low recycling rates, inefficient waste handling, and missed opportunities for circular‑economy value creation.
Solution
Lealtad Verde offers a 360° circular‑economy platform centered on reverse vending machines (SDDR) that automatically sort and valorize plastic bottles, aluminum cans, and other post‑consumer containers. The machines dispense cash or digital credits to users who deposit eligible items, while the platform records each transaction, calculates the associated carbon‑offset impact, and provides analytics to manufacturers, retailers, and municipalities. An accompanying mobile app lets users locate nearby machines, track their recycling activity, monitor personal emissions reductions, and redeem sustainable discounts at partner merchants. By integrating waste collection, valuation, and incentive mechanisms, Lealtad Verde enables stakeholders to close material loops and generate economic and environmental benefits from otherwise discarded resources.
Target Audience
Primary customers are retailers, municipalities, and manufacturers seeking to implement deposit‑return schemes and enhance circular‑economy performance, as well as end‑consumers who recycle for cash or rewards.
