25 Sep 2018 --- With black plastic being one of the most contentious issues and barriers in the world of recycling, The Collective – gourmet yogurt brand based in Somerset, UK – has revealed that its black lids will be 100 percent recyclable from October 2018 – a UK first in the food and drink industry. The technological advancement uses green pigment so that the black lids will be picked up on conveyor belts: meaning they will not be classed as waste and incinerated – as is the typical destiny for black plastics.
