winners of “Packaging waste
separate collection and recycling
t-shirt design” contest announced
Lorita constantinescu
Public relations and communication manager
Eco-Rom Ambalaje, in partnership with
the National Art University of
Bucharest (UNArte), which initiated the
“Packaging waste separate collection
and recycling T-shirt design” contest,
together with the other members of the
jury, selected the most creative T-shirt
design, out of a total of 54 projects.
Chioran Drago? of Oradea is the winner
of the grand prize. His T-shirt design
shows separate collection containers
imagined in the shape of creative, funny
characters that invite people to collect
waste separately and explain what kind of
waste goes to what container. ?e simple,
easy to remember and friendly message is
very suggestive and can easily pass
separate collection info to the public.
?ese were the main arguments for the
selection of the winning design.
Second place went to Gherghin
Cristiana of Bucharest, who associated

the gesture of separate collection with a
simple child’s game. ?ird place went to
two designs: Semenescu ?erban
Constantin of Boto?ani and
Gherghelescu Alexandru Eugen of
Constan?a – their designs invited people
to stop mixing waste together, just as they
don’t mix important things in life, and to
start thinking separately.
“?e creative ideas we found in the
projects signed up for this contest and the
fact that young people were involved made
us very happy. ?is shows that young
people are increasingly concerned with

environmental protection. We thank
everybody for their support and we would
like to congratulate the winner, who we
hope will be proud when he sees his
design at the biggest concerts, festivals,
events and information campaigns about
the separate collection of waste. We will
continue to organize such creative
contests to educate and implicate young
people, in hope that more of them will
make separate collection a part of their
day-to-day habits and will pass the gesture
along to their friends,” said Sorin Cristian
Popescu, Eco-Rom Ambalaje General
Manager.
