Catering establishments making available beverage containers on the market, including water, carbonated and non-carbonated soft drinks, ciders, beers, ready to drink coffee and dilutables in glass, PET or metal bottles and cans, are invited to get acquainted with the scheme participation conditions for the HoReCa sector accessible on the BCRS Malta portal – www.bcrsmalta.mt.
