Get ready for incoming 'Simpler Recycling' reforms with Jangro
With 'Simpler Recycling' reforms taking effect on 31st March 2025, businesses should prepare now to meet the new policy requirements, urges Jangro. The UK & Europe's largest network of independent janitorial and cleaning distributors is supporting businesses in their preparation with a range of tailored, innovative products.
All commercial facilities in England - including healthcare establishments and academic institutions - with more than 10 full-time employees will have to separate a core set of recyclable materials from their general waste at the point of collection for processing.
These new regulations will mean that businesses will have to separate groups of recyclable materials, including dry recyclables (which can be grouped together) and food waste as a dedicated collection, from general waste on site. Non-compliance with this new law could lead to significant fines.
Jangro offers a wide range of multi-stream recycling bins and stations, making it easier for organisations to comply with the new regulations, with a system that's right for their business, and be fully prepared for the upcoming changes.
A Slim Jim Recycling Station makes a versatile option. With a choice of seven colours and four lid openings, it can be customised to fit a company's bespoke requirements. Offering uncompromised performance and durability, these stream recycling stations are the perfect waste solution for space conscious environments.
Manufactured in the UK from 100% post-consumer recycled plastic, the uBin Recycling Bin not only enhances sustainability but also boasts a sleek and elegant design. It includes a large, overhanging lid to conceal liners, along with an air hole for easy bag removal. The angled top improves product and label visibility, while the tall design ensures the bin opening is at an easily accessible height, making it extremely user friendly.
The Jangro range of Indoor Slimline Swing Bins features modern designs and colour-coding to adhere to hygiene standards and prevent cross-contamination.
“The benefits of transitioning to simpler recycling are huge: improved recycling rates, reduced waste costs, and greater operational efficiency, not to mention a healthier planet!” says Jo Gilliard, CEO of Jangro.
“It's critical that businesses act now so they are ready when the new rules come into force on 31st March 2025. We are committed to helping companies get set for this major change in waste management - our wide range of high-quality recycling stations and bins will help them comply, all at consistent, competitive prices.”
From 31st March 2027, the Simpler Recycling legislation will extend to businesses with fewer than 10 full-time employees, plus plastic film must also be separated for recycling from this date.
