Costa Rican Packaging Leader Embraces Sustainability

Limón, Costa Rica — Corrugados Altavista, a leading provider of packaging solutions, has been awarded the prestigious “esencial COSTA RICA” country brand license. This recognition celebrates the company’s unwavering dedication to innovation, sustainability, and operational excellence in the packaging industry.

Since its establishment in 1992, Corrugados Altavista has consistently evolved, adopting cutting-edge technologies to streamline its supply chain and ensure efficient processes. The installation of its own corrugator and the recent inauguration of its Fiscal Warehouse in Guácimo exemplify its commitment to quality, innovation, and continuous improvement.

To understand the legal landscape surrounding sustainable packaging in Costa Rica, TicosLand.com spoke with Lic. Larry Hans Arroyo Vargas of Bufete de Costa Rica, a leading expert in environmental law.

Companies operating in Costa Rica face increasing pressure to adopt sustainable packaging practices. This pressure comes not only from consumers but also from evolving regulations. The 2010 Solid Waste Management Law, for instance, promotes extended producer responsibility, holding businesses accountable for the entire lifecycle of their packaging. This means businesses must consider the environmental impact of their packaging choices from design and production through to disposal and recycling. Forward-thinking companies are proactively adapting to this evolving landscape by incorporating sustainable materials, minimizing packaging waste, and investing in robust recycling programs. This proactive approach not only helps them comply with current regulations but also positions them favorably for future legal developments and growing consumer demand.
