Households in England and Wales produce a staggering 30 million tonnes of waste every year, approximately half a tonne per person, and that amount is steadily increasing.

Here in the U.K. we recycle only 11% of that waste, much less than any of our European neighbours, sending 80% (25 million tonnes) directly to landfill. 

Furthermore, the Environment Agency has predicted that in the space of 15 years our landfill capacity will be reduced to only 10 million tonnes per year, resulting in each local authority being set a landfill budget that, should it be breached, will incur a charge of £150 per extra ton of rubbish. We feel this cost will inevitably be passed on to the householder.

At Pressing Solutions we have over 10 years of experience in the recycling industry, and are committed to finding a better solution to our waste management problem.

This is why we think you will be pleased to have found the products in our catalogue. Each one is designed to make domestic recycling quick and easy, while in the long term saving money and helping the environment
