Appledore Packaging - Recycling Corrugated Packaging

Environment


Recycling Corrugated Packaging Corrugated packaging is fully biodegradable and 100% recycleable. Globally, over 70% of all corrugated is collected and recycled. Waste corrugated may be recycled over 5 times before its fibre becomes too weak for further use.

		Legislation The UK government has introduced Producer Responsibility Obligations (Packaging Waste) Regulations. These Regulation affect evey party involved in the packaging chain and full details may be found here at the Office of Public Sector Information. The Regulations set the Government target for recyling paper and board at 60% by December 2008.
