A large-scale soft plastics recycling facility at Taree is processing most of Australia’s recycled soft plastics and stockpiled waste from the failed REDcycle scheme.

Processed soft plastic is sent to a range of Australian manufacturers for reuse in a range of products.

Efforts are underway to boost demand for products made with recycled plastic.

    We have a bunch of reusable lightweight fabric bags, they’re great for veggie shopping. Actually more convenient than the single use plastic, because they’re easy to open and close, and you can hold a bunch of them by the drawstrings.
