So it is always good when brands accept back their empties for sterilizing and recycling and when they offer refills.

It should be noted that, Propellants in aerosol cans are highly flammable and can cause explosions and start fires.
Empty aerosol cans are considered as hazardous waste in the USA and many countries.
