OPRL has congratulated UK Packaging PRO on its appointment to Producer Responsibility Organisation (PRO) for EPR for Packaging.
Jude Allan, MD at OPRL, said: “We are delighted to support Karen and the team at UK Packaging PRO. Collaboration and working together are an essential part of achieving a system that the industry and the citizen can have confidence in, and this collaborative model brings clear representation of the whole value chain.
“Karen Graley – head of UK Packaging PRO – is a non-executive director at OPRL, so we are well-aware of her commitment to delivering increased recycling rates in the first instance, as well as her ambition to move packaging materials up the waste hierarchy.
“OPRL is always focused on providing the tools for citizens to make the right choices about recycling packaging, so we welcome this latest development in extended producer responsibility. We look forward to working with UK Packaging PRO enabling people to confidently and effectively recycle, to understand the importance of the role that they play, and to appreciate the value of the materials that are passing through their hands.”
