Petition Action

Fund free recycling for the hospitality and catering industry.

Petition Details

Deliveries for catering facilities are often packaged in cardboard although some suppliers are still using plastic this appears to be diminishing, slowly. Some food products are still packaged in tins and plastic bottles, the majority of which can be recycled.

Additional Information

The cost of recycling this packaging can make a significant impact on the profits of an establish to the extent that recyclable material is often disposed of in land fill waste.

The government needs to provide a subsidy to local authorities so that all recycling can be disposed of at no additional cost to the establishment. Two things to consider are that schools and charities are also considered as businesses for waste disposal and that all businesses are already paying rates and taxes.
