New industry guidelines make it easier and cheaper to recycle

The Environment Agency and WRAP might be trashing the rules
surrounding recycling non-packaging plastic waste by making it cheaper for companies to find alternatives to sending it to landfills, according to PRW.com

Martin Brocklehurst, head of external programmes at the EA, said: “A quality protocol saves business the time and costs associated with meeting waste regulations by clearly defining the standards required to collect, transport, store, recycle and re-use non-packaging plastic, without risking human health and the environment.”
