Welcome to our comprehensive guide to the new Wales Workplace Recycling regulations, due to take full effect from 6th April 2024.
These regulations, in accordance with section 45AA of the Environmental Protection Act 1990 are designed to enhance waste management practices across Wales by emphasising high quality recycling.
Applying to all premises excluding domestic properties and caravans, with hospitals granted an extra two-year compliance window, these regulations mandate the separation of specified recyclable materials at the source.
To comply, your premises will need to demonstrate that specified recyclable materials are separated at source, kept separate and then placed into collection containers by type. This will mean that you will need to ensure you have internal receptacles such as bins and containers to effectively sort your material at source.
