Q3 CIWM Packaging data shows strong results for aluminium recycling

EDITED BY : DIPANWITA GUPTA 2MINS READ

Provisional third quarter recycling data of the current financial year has been release this year by the National Packaging Waste Database of the Environment Agency, United Kingdom. The results showed strong performance across all materials including aluminium.

Although many reprocessors and exporters are yet to report their data to the central agency, the provisional results indicate at a healthy trend of recycling the materials have logged this fiscal. All materials including plastic, paper, aluminium, glass, steel, wood, and EfW have reversed the downward trends they showed last year to reach annual recycling targets in their individual categories.

News

Aluminium recycling in the current fiscal totalled at 21,724 tonnes, reaching 82 per cent of the target, which is pretty satisfactory. There has been a slight drop compared to last quarter's 22,916 tonnes; but the figure reflects a good position for the metal to hit the overall UK aluminium recycling target.

According to a report published by the Aluminium Packaging Recycling Organisation (Alupro) in April this year, national recycling rate for all aluminium packaging now stands at 55 per cent (previously 48 per cent) and the estimated recycling rate for aluminium drinks cans has reached 69 per cent (from 60 per cent). The study into the “real” recycling rate for aluminium packaging in 2015 revealed over 10,000 tonnes of unreported material.
