Collecting/Recycling And Managing Your Plastic Waste

HDPE (High Density Polyethylene)
Commonly used in milk "bottles"
PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride)
Commonly used in cling film, drinks and product bottles such as water/squash/shampoo etc.
LDPE (Low Density Polyethylene)

PP (Polypropylene)
Commonly used in butter/margarine tubs
PS (Polystyrene)
Commonly used in fresh food trays (fresh meat/takeaway trays etc.), egg cartons and packaging used for protecting consumer goods

These mill-sized bales of plastic waste are then re-manufactured into new products such as dustbin liners, traffic cones, outdoor furniture etc. - recycling "from cradle to grave to cradle".
