FGP carefully select its products based on their overall environmental impact.
Some products are made and used with a low impact but aren’t collected curbside for recycling by most councils, such as FGP's Air Cushion Recycled Content Film.
A study published in the peer-reviewed Science Advances journal (as of April '21) found just 14% of plastic packaging makes it to recycling plants.
Therefore, to avoid incineration or landfill, and provide raw material for new products, FGP provide Free Plastic Recycling mailers with pre-paid postage. These allow you and your customers to post waste film to us, and we 100% guarantee 100% of it gets recycled. This makes the material:
- easily disposed
- 100% recycled
Follow 3 simples steps and turn waste in to new products. Click for more.
1) Request free mailer at Contact Us
2) Deflate & flatten film in to mailer
3) Post pre stamped & addressed mailer in letterbox
Who can do this? Everyone – our customers and their customers. Our customers can also accumulate from their customers and send us bigger batches.
Our mailers are usually large letter A4 size, bag or envelope, with 25mm max thickness, which can be posted through Royal Mail letterboxes. This A4 size is ample to contain the air cushion film found in the majority of typical online orders - when easily deflated & flattened. If the amount of deflated material is too large for this size, or you'd rather build up more waste before returning to us, Contact Us about suitable delivery methods. Also, customers can use their own bags or envelopes to return.
We then ship to TerraCycle® where the plastics are melted down, turned into pellets, moulded and extruded to produce new products. By properly recycling our products, we are truly supporting a circular economy.
Alternatively, enter your postcode at Plastic film & carrier bags | Recycle Now for a list of your closest soft plastic collection points. (See FGP's Supermarkets to Super Recyclers Blog for more).
We're all feeling more responsible, but FGP's extra responsibility is to make this free & easy. We do this at our own cost because we care. If it can be 100% recycled, it 100% should be!
How else is FGP film environmentally beneficial? Click for more.
Further to our film being 100% Recyclable and 100% Recycled when returned, the film is made using 50% waste = 50% less virgin material. Given c. 14% of plastic gets recycled, this means a c. 15% raw material improvement, even if the film doesn't get recycled! But we hope it does, encouraged by our easy free waste collection service.
The environmental benefits of how the film is processed is just as important. 99% of our inflated air cushion material is air. This means uninflated film is highly energy-efficient to deliver and store. Less vehicles, less CO2, and less traffic! Your on-site Forever Green machine then inflates the material to produce a great yield of packing material when you need it.
This means you;
- Re-order less - forever running out of bulky materials?
- Use less storage - got better things to store than packaging?
FGP share the vision of the 2018 UK Plastic Pact by Wrap. Click for more.
One goal is to make100% of plastic packaging either:
1) Recyclable or 2) compostable.
This is why FGP avoid most so-called "Biodegradable" plastics. They aren't recyclable due to their additives contaminating conventional plastic recycling streams, and they're dangerous in the natural environment due to micro polymers (see FGP’s Bio-Debatable Blog for more). To be truly "biodegradable", plastics must have EN13432 Certification - the European standard of compostability.
Therefore, FGP film is either;
1) 100% Recyclable
2) Compostable - to EN13432 standard
This means none of our waste should end up in landfill.
