Description
Plastic products most commonly being addressed by legislation in our
markets
Plastic products that have measures in place (driven by legislation or
voluntarily applied by some brands) to control their usage, for example
a charge for using plastic bags
Plastic products where alternatives do not currently exist at scale or
where careless substitution of plastic could lead to significant negative,
unintended consequences such as increased food waste
Products that are widely recyclable or compostable (in line with national
guidance), made from a renewable resource, for example palm leaf or
sugar cane, or reusable products like 'bags for life' or refillable coffee
cups
