The UK Government is considering the appointment of a Producer Responsibility Organisation (PRO) as part of its packaging EPR (pEPR). The move comes in response to concerns voiced by the food packaging industry regarding the scheme’s efficiency and responsibilities. We discuss the pEPR update with the UK’s Department for Environment Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) and the Food & Drink Federation (FDF), which represents the interests of F&B manufacturers in the country.
