Last Friday, a news story hit the BBC which made all of us here at Clearpoint Recycling both really sad and concerned.
The article ‘Why is UK recycling being dumped by Turkish roadsides?’ showed large volumes of plastic waste being exported from the UK and abandoned and burned overseas.
We’d like to reassure everyone that this isn’t a balanced and accurate representation neither of British exporters nor Turkey’s recyclable material importers. There are companies that really care about ensuring a compliant and sustainable end-destination for recyclable commodities.
And both us and our suppliers are among them!
Our dedicated Compliance team provides a fully transparent cradle-to-cradle audit trail – including tracking and reporting metrics – for every tonne of material we export, so we’ve always had peace of mind that we’re not contributing to these horrific scenes.
