Simpler Recycling: navigating the upcoming deadline with confidence

United Kingdom
From 30/01/2025 10:00:00 to 30/01/2025 11:00:00 local time

  • The 31 March 2025 deadline for the implementation of Simpler Recycling is fast approaching, marking a pivotal moment for how recycling is managed across England. This long-awaited policy, linking with packaging EPR, promises to reshape the recycling landscape, by standardising practices, improving efficiency, and promoting sustainable resource management. 

     

    But there are few critical questions surrounding its implementation that businesses and organisations must consider to ensure compliance and efficiency. Which services will you need? What materials are being targeted and how best to collect them? When must you have a compliant service in place? What questions should I ask of my waste contractor? These and other related questions will be addressed in this webinar. Understanding compliance, reporting requirements and customer expectation is critical for a smooth and efficient transition.

     

    The key to managing this change will be communication. Effective and clear messaging will be crucial in educating stakeholders, inspiring action, and ensuring all parties - businesses, policymakers, and the wider public, are prepared. With well-executed communication, we can build a shared understanding and generate the momentum needed to drive this initiative forward.
    Simpler Recycling offers a significant opportunity for businesses to reduce their carbon emissions and potentially achieve cost savings, paving the way for a more sustainable and economically viable future. 


    This webinar is your opportunity to gain invaluable insights, ask critical questions, and prepare for what’s ahead.
