The materials that must be separated include: Paper and cardboard, Glass, Food waste, Dry recyclables, such as plastics and Metal. This initiative aims to simplify recycling for businesses while increasing recycling rates, reducing landfill use, and supporting the UK’s environmental sustainability targets. By preparing now, businesses can transition smoothly to these new requirements and contribute to creating a cleaner and greener future. Compliance with the waste legislation avoids penalties and helps your business align with national efforts to promote simpler recycling and combat climate change.
