"This museum highlights the importance of using plastic and its contribution to protecting the environment at all stages: eco-design, use, reuse and recycling," says Alicia Martín, spokesperson for EsPlásticos, a platform that brings together the different agents that make up the plastics sector in Spain.

"In order for waste to be recycled and used, it is important that we all learn to separate it properly and not abandon it in the environment. The industry collaborates by eco-designing, recycling and using recycled and renewable materials," the project's website warns .

On the occasion of World Recycling Day on May 17, the structure installed in the Spanish capital was dismantled in order to recycle and reuse all the material. The exhibition remains available online.
