Plastic Packaging Tax – draft legislation published
Read MoreOUR SERVICES
Companies who handle packaging in the UK are subject to the Packaging Regulations. We work with these businesses, helping them to reduce their impact on the environment and ensuring they comply with current regulations.
If your business produced or handled more than 50 tonnes of packaging in the last year AND you have a turnover of more than £2 million you will need to comply with the Producer Responsibility Obligations (Packaging Waste) Regulations.
Introduced in 1997, these regulations require companies to finance the recovery and recycling of packaging materials in proportion to the amount they have placed on the market.
To meet your obligation under the Packaging Regulations, your business must:
1.
Register with the Environment Agency (or relevant authority), either directly or by joining a compliance scheme such as Clarity Packaging Compliance.
2.
Submit annual data to the Environment Agency on the amount of packaging your business has handled.
3.
Procure recycling evidence notes known as PRNs (packaging waste recovery notes).
4.
Provide information to consumers about the product’s packaging, including where it can be recycled and the meaning of labels.
The benefits of joining our packaging compliance scheme include:
– Transparent pricing structure and no hidden costs.
– The lowest price PRNs from our in-house purchasing team.
– Flexible payment solutions.
– Ongoing support, advice and training with data submissions.
– Low-risk compliance.
– Guidance on the most cost-effective compliance route throughout the year.
– Discounts for WEEE compliance members.
