Polytag is calling for businesses and industry leaders to support a modern, flexible approach to the UK’s deposit return scheme (DRS). More than 50 signatories have added their voices to an open letter urging the UK government to integrate digital innovation to future-proof the country’s packaging recycling sector. The current DRS proposals, which favor a fully “return-to-retail” model, require consumers to store containers at home and then collect their deposits via reverse vending machines (RVMs) at retail locations.
