The SIGRE system has been implemented throughout Spain, for which it has the approval of regional environmental authorities with devolved powers in this ambit.
cita SIGRE regularly provides regional environmental authorities with follow-up reports containing information on recycling management and prevention measures
Administrative checks performed on SIGRE‘s activity are the best guarantee for the public that their cooperation in recycling medicines is helping to produce a successful outcome.
SIGRE regularly provides regional environmental authorities with follow-up reports containing information on the management of the medicine packaging and leftover medicines collected, and on the preventive measures being taken by the pharmaceutical industry.
As the benchmark health authority in terms of quality, safety, efficacy and accurate information on medicines, the Spanish Medicines and Healthcare Products Agency supervises the inclusion of the SIGRE Symbol on the labelling of medicinal products in order to foster protection and promotion of the environment and of human health.
