Defra Funds Study To Boost Recycling Of Flexible Packaging

摘要

LRS Consultancy (LRS), in partnership with Enval, SITA UK, Nestle UK & Ireland, Coca-Cola Enterprises and Tesco UK, has received funding from Defra to scope out viable approaches for collecting flexible packaging materials containing aluminium. Flexible laminate packaging often contains valuable aluminium and various recyclable plastics, which can be difficult to collect and separate for recycling viably. Funded by Defra's Action Based Research programme, LRS will undertake research to develop and trial new methods of recovering and treating flexible plastic and aluminium laminate packaging.
