The Government announced that from April 2022 there would be a world-leading new tax introduced on the production and import of plastic packaging with less than 30% recycled content.

All of our products are manufactured from rPET which is a 100% recyclable plastic that is collected each week by UK kerbside household rubbish waste collections. rPET is a recyclable and reusable plastic which can be super-cleaned to create a multi-use, and multi-reuse plastic from both post-consumer waste and post-industrial waste.

Plastic trays, bottles and containers are recycled and converted into small flakes and then undergo a rigorous hot wash process to ensure they are totally clean before re-processing to create rPET packaging and other products. 

PlatterPlus uses rPET plastic that is made from at least 30%   post-consumer waste which conforms to UK / EU approved food packaging regulations to give our material its certified food contact assurance. 

Our material also contains circa 20 -25% post industrial waste which is the scrap generated in our production process that can all be recycled As recycling increases so too will the availability of post-consumer waste so that the recycled content of rpet will increase until it is eventually 100% recycled 

All of our platters can be washed in warm soapy water until clean and then reused many times over. (The platters are NOT dishwasher safe). Once finished with, all of our products can be rinsed off and placed in your general recycling bin. 

By sourcing localised UK suppliers we can reduce our carbon footprint and support the UK Circular Economy targets.
