2022 | Guayaquil, Ecuador
Where the Conversation Began
The first international gathering took place in Guayaquil, Ecuador, bringing together organizations from across Latin America, North America and Europe to explore circular economy models for the responsible management of used lubricating oil and its packaging.
Hosted by APEL/RECOIL, the event created an opportunity for participants to share experiences, technologies and best practices from their respective countries. Representatives from 13 countries participated, culminating in a shared commitment to work toward a more sustainable lubricant sector.
The conversations and relationships established in Ecuador laid the foundation for continued international collaboration and future gatherings.
