We are helping design Australia’s largest industry-led plastics recycling scheme.

The National Plastics Recycling Scheme (NPRS) will:

• make it easier for people to recycle soft plastics at home
• create a new advanced recycling industry in Australia that can turn used soft plastics back into new food-grade packaging.

This creates a circular plastics loop and cleaner recycling streams for all materials, including paper and cardboard.

The NPRS project unites brand owners, manufacturers, recyclers and consumers in one powerful, nationwide scheme to transform our plastics problems into circular solutions.

The NPRS is being developed by Australia’s food and grocery manufacturing industry with funding support from the Australian Government.
