Landfill
www.carpetrecyclinguk.com
• Landfill ban could accelerate material recovery
• Must be implemented over a timeframe to allow building of capacity for recycling
• Hurried ban could lead to :– Increased incineration – lack of UK
capacity will lead to export of carpet to incineration in Europe
Lack of carpets for development of recycling infrastructure
Landfill ban of carpet waste?
www.carpetrecyclinguk.com
• Set targets to show progress in diversion rates
• Continuation of Landfill tax escalator beyond 2014/ 15
• Landfill ban with 5 to 10 year transition period
• Voluntary commitment preferable to legislation
CRUK Position
www.carpetrecyclinguk.com
• Carpets emerging as valuable raw material source
• Interest from innovators in using fibres in new products
• Landfill ban potential driver for innovation if:– Sufficient timeframe for implementation;
and– Coupled with increase in landfill tax
