Environmental Policy, Licences and Exemptions
Lovewaste Limited is a specialist in plastics recycling and waste plastics. We work to the highest environmental standards when buying, transporting, or recycling plastic scrap. We inspect and approve all plastic scrap to ensure that movements comply with all UK regulations including TFS (Trans Frontier Shipment) Regulations, and any European Regulations such as EC1013.
Where possible we will recycle material ourselves and sell the recycled plastic back into the UK market. When this is not possible, we will sell to other approved plastics recycling plants or end users. If any waste plastic is exported then it is sent to a recycling plant where we have a long term and close relationship. These plants are fully licenced, and are approved by the UK Environment Agency as part of our licence approval process. We are proud to boast over 80 Environment Agency approved "R3" sites on our export licence.
We are also proud to be a voluntary participant in the Environment Agency Electronic Annex VII Scheme and every single export of plastic waste is pre-approved by the Environment Agency prior to shipment. You can rest assured that your plastic waste will not be found in an exotic location and featured on a TV documentary or news programme!
The recycled plastic waste is used to manufacture items ranging from pipes to picture frames. Some of the plastics we export will come back to the UK in the form of new plastic packaging or recycled plastic items. Full audit trails can be provided if required, along with certificates of destruction for commercially sensitive items.
