Description

Provides information/data on recycling & recovery by each quarter. Figures in this product are for voluntary returns. Although most operators will work within the system owing to the commercial value of claiming credits, there is no obligation to do so. These figures , therefore, may legitimately not reflect the total amount of wastes processed/treated. Information on non-reporters (by the deadline) is shown. Any subsequent updates (quarterly) will contain both late returns, and any amendments to other returns (which are commonplace). ePRN means electronic packaging waste recovery notes (ePERN for exports).
