Are you aware that if you have an annual turnover of more than £2M,
or handle more than 50 tonnes of packaging then you will more than
likely be subject to the Packaging Waste
Regulations?
 Furthermore, if some of your
packaging ends up in the UK waste stream you will be responsible for
ensuring that a percentage of that waste is either recycled or recovered.
There is some packaging material exclusion, which do not form part of this
requirement.
Note: You
do not have to personally recycle or recover the packaging yourself. This
requirement can be achieved through obtaining Packaging Waste Recovery Notes
(PRN’s).
