Rauno Raal
Managing Partner/Consultant at Earth Care Consulting
After gaining management experience in banking and IT development sectors, Rauno joined the exciting recycling sector in 2008. He was General Manager of the Estonian Deposit System for 10 years, the biggest challenge was to ‘turn the boat around’ and put DRS to work in an efficient way, from both the environmental and financial outlooks. July 2018 Rauno left the Estonian Deposit System and acts as foreign expert in different waste management related projects all over Europe. It remains a joy for Rauno to see how hundreds of millions of cans, PET and glass bottles are collected and recycled rather than landfilled or incinerated. According to Rauno, one of the keys for an efficient circular economy is the use of high quality material, something that DRS can contribute to and therefore help start up further developments.
