Packaging

In Scotland alone, around 40,000 disposable coffee cups are littered every day. With the UK takeaway industry growing we must ask: what happens to all the waste? The vast majority is contaminated by food, grease and chemicals, so is not possible to recycle, instead it heads straight to landfill or incineration. Wherever possible single-use packaging should be removed or replaced with reusable alternatives and any single-use packaging needed should be recyclable or compostable with effective collection and processing infrastructure. ​
