Abstract

Objectives The overarching aim of this project is to drive market confidence in using post- consumer recycled materials in products already on the market, where it is currently not common practice, by demonstrating the economic and environmental benefits of doing so. The objectives of this project are to: develop and demonstrate solutions for overcoming real or perceived barriers to increasing the usage of recycled content, sustainable product design, re-manufacture, or reuse by manufacturers in Wales; demonstrate the economic, environmental, and social viability and benefits of those solutions to Welsh businesses; encourage collaboration across Welsh supply chains to develop these solutions; and provide sufficient robust evidence from the trials to enable WRAP to develop recommendations for Welsh policy and industry guidance/standards or actions which can help to increase confidence in and promote the use of recycled content or design for re-manufacture and reuse in products, components, and packaging manufactured in Wales. Each demonstration trial will be proposed and delivered by a separate contracted project team. The project team should embody the relevant manufacturing supply chain (upstream and downstream of the manufacturer) to enable the viability of the proposed solution to be fully demonstrated. One company in the project team will need to be identified as the lead partner, and this will be the contracting party with WRAP; all the other companies in the project team will be sub-contractors to the lead partner.
