British Plastics Federation: Measuring the efficacy of plastic packaging regulations
14 Mar 2019 | British Plastics Federation
The Director for Plastic and Flexible Packaging at the British Plastics Federation (BPF) warns against the adverse effects of a “hard” Brexit on the entire value chain. Speaking to PackagingInsights during the recent Packaging Innovations show in Birmingham, UK, Barry Turner explains that uncertainty around exports, investment decisions and the supply of raw materials could cause significant disruption to the packaging industry. In a wide-ranging interview, Turner also describes his preference for an Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) scheme over a plastics tax.
