HDC introduces Tetrapak recycling
Each year, UK beverage carton
manufacturers produce approximately 55,000 tonnes of
paper based cartons for milk, juice, sauces and other
liquid foods & drinks. This equates to around
2.3kg of cartons per household, and you may have
wondered why there are no facilities to recycle them.
Well, there are now
- HDC recently introduced a limited number of special
collection bins throughout the district.
Horsham's are at Oak Tree Way, off Redkiln Way, and
despite the rather out-of-the-way location they seem
to be getting a lot of use.
Tetrapaks and
similar containers can be recycled into a number of
different products, ranging from plasterboard liner to
high strength paper bags and envelopes, so why not
make use of the facilities?
