Eliminate single-use packaging from your markets. We manage the transition; you simply receive the results.

PAKA is a complete reusable packaging service for municipal markets, including sanitization, logistics, traceability and the digital platform.

How it works

  1. Customers purchase products in PAKA containers.
  2. They return them to a smart return station located within the market.
  3. PAKA collects, sanitizes (UNE-EN 15593 certified) and redistributes the containers to market stalls.
  4. Every transaction is recorded and made available to the local authority.

A unique public service innovation PAKA combines, within a single service, a new consumption model, improved food safety and waste management for municipal markets.

Results 100% container return rate achieved in the Sant Boi pilot market.

Why it matters beyond waste Single-use packaging releases microplastics during everyday use, which end up in the food sold at markets, with growing evidence of their impact on human health (gut microbiota, inflammation and endocrine disruption).

Implementation with no burden on local authorities PAKA manages the entire transformation of the market’s consumption model, including vendor training, communication and user engagement, and public awareness to encourage widespread adoption. The local authority does not manage the implementation—it simply receives the impact reports.

Regulatory compliance and DRS model Sanitization process certified in accordance with UNE-EN 15593.
