Compliance

Monoworld Group operates in full compliance with the UK’s regulations and conditions applicable to our waste management permits. We operate all functions as per strict ISO standards.

Packaging Waste Regulations

The Producer Responsibility Obligations (Packaging Waste) 2007 first came into effect in 1997. The scheme enables companies with packaging waste obligations to offset their obligations by purchasing Packaging Recovery Notes (PRNs) from accredited recyclers through compliance schemes.

Monoworld has been an accredited exporter of UK plastic packaging waste since the early days of the scheme. Our success has enabled us to invest heavily in the UK recycling infrastructure in Property, Plant and Equipment. Monoworld is now also an accredited recycler of plastic packaging waste. This investment into the future of UK recycling is planned to continue over the coming years. Helping the UK meet its stringent recycling targets, Monoworld will continue to invest in state of the art equipment to recycle a more diverse range of plastics and other materials.

It is our aim to minimise the volumes of waste materials sent to landfill and/or overseas for recovery, in favour of recycling those materials right here in the UK.

Traceability

Monoworld has developed a unique system whereby every kilo of waste entering the site is weighed on our calibrated weighbridge and logged with information including, source, carrier, vehicle registration, description, waste type, driver signature and weighbridge operative signature. This goods inward information is then logged by administration using fully integrated SAP software for monthly reporting to suppliers.

Following the reprocessing of the waste materials, Monoworld repeats the documentation system for all goods outwards again down to the very last kilo.

Compliance Documentation, Certificates and Policies

Each Monoworld company is registered with the Environment Agency in terms of their role as Broker, Carrier and Dealer of waste and each site involved in processing / recycling of waste is covered under the Environmental Permitting Regulations – Waste Operations.
