| ACTION ON PLASTICS WEBSITE LAUNCHED TO HELP PLASTIC WASTE PRODUCERS IN THE YORKSHIRE & HUMBER REGION
It is estimated 133,000 tonnes of plastic film and 94,000 tonnes of rigid plastics are being landfilled annually from commercial and industrial sources in the Yorkshire & Humber region?
If you’re generating plastic waste – either from manufacturing processes or as general waste – you could have this collected (even paid for) by a local reprocessor and at the same time reduce your waste disposal costs.
The new ‘Action on Plastics’ website launched by CO2 Sense Yorkshire provides you with information on a well established network of local recyclers who are ready and eager to collect and convert your waste plastic into new products. They can also give help and advice on the easiest ways to identify and separate your plastic waste.
