Industry group formalised to drive recovery and recycling of paper cups

Stakeholders of the paper cup supply chain have announced the formalisation of the Paper Cup Recovery and Recycling Group (PCRRG). Originally set up as a special interest group, the PCRRG has during its time worked hard to increase recognition that used paper cups can provide high quality material to the market place and that there is a need to ensure that it is captured effectively for use in the supply chain.
Primary objectives are to continue to drive action around the development of the collection and recycling opportunities for paper cups and identify and support implementation of solutions to sustainably transform used paper cups into a valuable resource (Press Release PCRRG, 9 July 2014).
