Where it goes and what happens to it:
Instead of going to the Portsmouth Material Recovery Facility, the plastics are collected by our partner Biffa Commercial and sent to one of their re-processing facilities in the UK (Biffa Polymers). Biffa Polymers then shred, wash, and pelletise them, ready to be made back into food containers where possible and other products where not. For more information, visit Plastic Recycling | Biffa.
