Reciplasa proposes to face September with habits that reduce waste generation

El Periódico Mediterráneo - General11 September 2026 at 05:01

The company Reciplasa proposes that the citizens of Castellón face the month of September by adopting habits that allow reducing waste generation. The campaign aims to raise awareness among families about the importance of more sustainable practices in daily life.

The month of September marks the return to normal activity after the summer vacation period. This transition brings new consumption needs, including wardrobe changes, back to school, and return to work.

Given this scenario of greater commercial activity and consumption, Reciplasa encourages households in Castellón to focus on three fundamental pillars: prevention, reuse, and recycling. The goal is for citizens to incorporate these habits into their routines during this recovery period.

The initiative comes as an appeal for purchases associated with the return to routine to be made more consciously, avoiding waste and promoting more responsible management of resources during this period of greater consumption.

New energy surge leaves companies apprehensive

The new escalation of tension in the Persian Gulf and Red Sea has once again caused energy prices to surge, with the price of oil touching 100 dollars a barrel, increasing pressure on European and Portuguese companies that were already facing high energy costs in the first quarter. The Government announced measures such as a 3-cent increase in ISP, the extension of the 10-cent agricultural diesel support and the maintenance of the solidary gas bottle, but business associations consider these measures insufficient. The Portuguese Business Association advocates for measures targeting the most exposed sectors, while CAP estimates needs of 170 to 200 million euros and Apicer suggests reviving the former 'Apoiar Gás' programme, which made 190 million available for companies dependent on natural gas. Government officials leave the door open to further support, acknowledging the unlikelihood of a US-Iran agreement that would allow a significant drop in prices in the short term.

Harvest yields 650 million liters of wine, up 12% compared to 2025

The grape harvest in Portugal is expected to yield 650 million liters of wine, representing a 12% increase compared to the previous year, in a context where European production fell by 11%. The president of the Vine and Wine Institute (IVV), Francisco Toscano Rico, highlighted that Portugal is in counter-cycle with the European trend, emphasizing this year's excellent quality and the early start of the harvest. However, the sector faces significant challenges, including a decline in global consumption exacerbated by geopolitical instability and trade tariffs. Although Portugal has demonstrated "superior resilience" compared to other European countries, the sector now exports to 150 countries and is betting on new markets such as India and Mercosur, particularly Brazil, to offset pressure on traditional destinations.

Wine business is turning sour worldwide

The wine business is going through one of the most difficult phases in the last 60 years, with world consumption declining and excess supply pressing prices and margins. Several countries, including France, Germany and Australia, are pulling out vineyards to reduce production. Portugal, although more resistant than other European producers, faces challenges: national production is recovering, but about half of the wine depends on external markets. The Government announced a credit line of 110 million euros and 12 million in support for the Douro, but CAP demands comprehensive measures for all regions and not just short-term interventions. The confederation also warns about competition from bulk Spanish wine and demands greater inspection and traceability. The IVV is developing a digital traceability system for all wines sold in Portugal, using artificial intelligence, and created the Vineyard and Wine Observatory to gather data on the sector. External promotion was reinforced, with the public funding rate rising to 60%.
