Deposit Return Schemes (DRS)
In addition, UK Governments have recently
expressed interest in Deposit Return Schemes
(DRS) for drinks containers. You can download
a copy of our DRS report here.
The challenge
The scope and design of EPR systems for
food and drinks packaging will be critically
important in establishing future compliance
costs to retailers and producers who handle
packaging. But precisely how and the extent
to which the current EPR system will be
reformed and how it interacts with DRS is not
yet certain.
