Irish minister publishes report on recycling market

The PETrecycling.cz assessment based on R&D up-to-day results is, that it should be made clear, that all beverage containers, e.g. PET bottles, ALU cans and glass bottles, that are commercially imported into Czech Republic or sold here should be included in return systems with deposits - to encourage the consumers to take the bottles back

The Minister for the Environment, Heritage and Local Government John Gormley has published the First Report of the Action Group on the recycling market. The Group was established last month by the Minister following a dramatic fall in the international price for ‘recyclates’ or materials collected for recycling. The drop in demand was very rapid and was caused by the current international economic situation, combined with the very large fall in oil prices. Ireland exports 85 per cent of its recycling material, and the price fall has led to serious difficulties within the recycling industry in Ireland.
