The Wales Environment Trust is a member of the ReMaDe Network UK. The Remade Network UK connects organisations and programmes working to find uses for waste as a resource and to minimise its impact on the environment by identifying alternatives to landfill.
 

Is someone else's waste product your raw material?

At the Wales Environment Trust, we create new markets for recyclates (recyclates refers to any products such as aggregates, glass, wood, plastics, metals, paper and card, biodegradable materials and end-of-life products such as cars, fridges and electrical equipment, that can be recycled).

We help businesses to develop economically and environmentally sustainable ways to maximise the use of recyclate for business benefit, while minimising waste destined for landfill sites.

Welsh pupils recycle plastic milk bottles

Welsh pupils recycle plastic milk bottles20 September 2007

School children are being asked to rinse their empty bottles and put them upside down in a crate, which is exchanged for full bottles every day. From the Dairy Farmers milk depot, empties are taken to Bridgend where they are compacted and baled. When a twelve-tonne load has been made up, the plastic is then driven up to Robust Ltd at Ebbw Vale, where the HDPE is granulated to become a new raw material which has a market value.
