[Flexible Plastic Fund @flexiback]

@AlanBeningfield Brands are required to buy recycling evidence from recyclers to offset the packaging they place on the market and the Fund guarantees an excellent price for the recycler = more funding. We do not have a plant, we audit and certify existing recyclers to ensure high standards.

@ElaineMallion Sorry the delay on this - we now have confirmation that at the moment, unfortunately garden compost bags are not recommended to recycle at the listed recycling points.

[Flexible Plastic Fund @flexiback]

@ElaineMallion Thank you for the question and sorry for the delay in responding, we are just waiting for feedback from the recyclers. We will let you know and update the advice on the website as soon as we find out.

@OhDeerLouise Thank you for your enquiry. As the fund is in its infancy, we really value input from consumers to show demand in certain areas. More supermarket collection points are being added and you can request one near you using the form at the bottom of this page: https://t.co/XiPR0nEukv

Retailer @sainsburys is set to introduce in-store recycling systems for flexible plastic packaging across all stores nationwide. This has partly been made possible thanks to the Flexible Plastic Fund created by @ecosurety & supported by @hubbubUK https://t.co/fQY5N9Poyk
