Businesses, charities, and public sector organisations across Wales now face new requirements to sort and recycle their waste properly. This new legislation aims to improve the quality and quantity of recycling, supporting Wales' goal of becoming a zero-waste nation and tackling the climate crisis.
Under the law, companies must separately collect and recycle materials like food waste, paper, glass, metals, plastics, and textiles. There are also restrictions on sending certain waste streams to incineration or landfills. Failure to comply can result in penalties.
Fortunately, resources like Tarkett’s ReStart® programme provide a readily available solution. The hassle-free recycling programme allows businesses to responsibly recycle flooring materials, diverting them from landfills and keeping valuable resources in circulation. By partnering with Tarkett, organisations can streamline their waste management and demonstrate their commitment to sustainability.
With its comprehensive guidance and practical support, the ReStart® programme can help organisations of all sizes navigate the new recycling requirements and adopt sustainable waste management practices. By embracing solutions like ReStart®, Welsh businesses can turn legislative change into an opportunity to enhance their environmental impact and operational efficiency. Learn more.
