IOS tourney with at least €11,000

Returpack has joined forces with Inferno Online to host a CS:GO tournament that will feature a prize purse in excess of €11,000.

Returpack, better known as Pantamera, is a private Swedish company responsible for the deposit system for metal cans and recyclable bottles for ready-to-drink beverages in this Nordic country.

In 2011, Returpack ran a recycling ad with several Swedish esports figures, from NiP chief Emil "HeatoN Christensen and star player Christopher "⁠GeT_RiGhT⁠" Alesund to Starcraft II gamer Jeffrey "Sjow" Brusi, that was aimed at raising awareness for recycling.

The company has now launched a campaign called Pantamera för eSporten (Recycle more for eSports) and, for that, it has guaranteed a minimum prize purse of 100,000 SEK (approximately €11,000) for a CS:GO tournament that will be held in February at Inferno Online Stockholm.

Moreover, Pantamera has pledged to use, for the next six months, every recycled jar and bottle from the recycling stations at the Inferno Online's centers in Odenplan, Skanstull and Norrköping to up the prize pool of the tournament to the fullest.

According to projections, this could push the prize pool up to 250,000 SEK (approximately €27,000), HLTV.org has learned.

"In Sweden, we are among the best in the world at recycling, but for us to become even better, it is important that young people are given the opportunity and the information in their familiar surroundings," said Pantamera product manager Rickard Andersson.

Right now, there is no more information about the number of teams that will take part in the tournament or how one can sign up for the event. Stay tuned to HLTV.org for all the details about this event.

it might not be closed to swedish participants. remember that these orgs are in it for the money, and they will accept teams from everywhere, provided they pay for their spot and can attend the tournament..

It's not the charity thing that bother me, it's more about what agdq is now on. ESA should be more of an example in what a "charity/fun" event should be. They don't restrict themselves and we can actually see how much fun they have during the event, AGDQ is like 99% of boring stuff and overhyped shit.

That`s actually true, we recycle to much of our garbage so we import around 100 000 ton of garbage every year (mainly from Norway).

It's mostly for heating. Most countries aren't as cold as Sweden, and don't use district heating to the same extent.
