Redcycles Wind Up Order

Soft plastics never belong in your recycling bin! With #REDcycle’s wind-up order, Australia does not have a national plan to recycle our soft plastics. For the interim, soft plastics need to be placed into your general waste. Putting your soft plastics in your recycling bin contaminates the stream and we lose vital resources that can be reused. If you can scrunch it, it cannot be recycled!

The Federal Government are articulating a, “path forward to resume soft plastics collection” by “rolling out the $250 million Recycling Modernisation Fund and in the last budget we announced $60 million to support new recycling infrastructure for hard to recycle plastics, including soft plastics.”
