IGORA was founded in 1989 as a cooperative based in Zurich by companies from the beverage, food, pet food and aluminum industries and trade. Together with the beverage and aluminum industry, IGORA developed a well thought-out, private-sector collection and recycling concept that is not based on coercion, but on voluntariness.
