Take a look through our range of products and ideas using the links below to help you recycle more.
Did you know that around 85% of your household waste goes direct to landfill sites where is will take hundreds of years to decompose and give off potent greenhouse gases in the process?
With the average household throwing away 22kg of rubbish a week, that's over 25 million tonnes being buried each year & growing. Current predictions are that Land Fill Sites will be used up in just nine years time.
With these figures in mind, it is understandable why there is an increased interest and urgency to recycle more; to put our household waste to good use and not into a hole in the ground.
