Kingspan has committed to recycling 500 million plastic bottles each year by 2023, for use in its insulation, with a further target of 1 billion bottles each year by 2025.
Resource recovery specialist Axion say easy kerbside collections for consumers that focus on consistent quality are vital, if the UK is to boost plastics recycling rates and meet current targets.
The Board of Directors at S Norton & Co Ltd, one of the UK’s prominent metal recyclers, has announced the resignation of Roger Morton as MD of both S Norton and Axion Recycling.
Axion have urged the industry to plan a viable solution to recover the 100,000 tonnes of packaging material polypropylene (PP) film put on the market every year in the UK.
