WRAP’S VISION:A world without waste, where resources are used sustainably.
WRAP’S MISSION:To help businesses and individuals reap the benefits of reducing waste, developing sustainable products and using resources in an efficient way.

MAKING A DIFFERENCE, TOGETHER
Over the last eight years across the UK:Recycling rates have nearly quadrupled. Investment for 5.8 million tonnes extra
reprocessing capacity.12 million tonnes of CO2 equivalent
avoided.

Why bother?:
•UK uses approx 680M tpa of material per annum, and wastes circa 50%
•Resource Efficiency ‘quick wins’ could provide 10% of target reductions in GHG
•Welsh Businesses could save £318M per annum
![Page 9: Waste and Resources Action Programme (WRAP)](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062319/557ca61ad8b42ab4218b5122/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Is More Reprocessing Infrastructure Needed?:•‘Proximity principle’ – reprocessing as close to source as practicable•Estimated at least 25% of Welsh source separated recyclate leaves Wales for reprocessing•Reprocessing has both environmental and economic benefits•WAG targets for 70% recycling by 2024/25 implies need for massive increase in reprocessing (80% more input?)
![Page 10: Waste and Resources Action Programme (WRAP)](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062319/557ca61ad8b42ab4218b5122/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Opportunities for the Reprocessing Sector?:•Increased supply and gate fees (landfill increasingly expensive)•Recyclate prices will rise, inevitably, as virgin materials do•Welsh business demand for recycled inputs will rise•Support is available

Commercial & Industrial (ie from business) First of its kind for Wales – multi-round,
multi sector competition but NOT a continuous scheme
3 rounds throughout 2008-11 Approximately £3m available each round Circa £6.5M grant lever in £19M
investment, created 365k tpa reprocessing capacity

Capital Grant Programme 2010 – 2015?: Convergence Funded (Convergence Region
only) 6 + funding rounds from ‘late’ 2010 Circa £2m per round Up to 45% intervention rate WON’T have to have rigid C&I stipulation Waste streams to be guided by ‘Towards Zero
Waste’ and subsequent sector plans Evaluation based on VFM in terms of tonnages
diverted/CO2 saving and job creation

De Minimis Grant Schemes – Recycled Content: Focus on SME manufactures To encourage substitution of virgin material
inputs in product OR packaging Any non-metallic materials Capital costs + ‘relaunch’ promotional costs Typically up to £50K Outputs are forecast quantities of material
diverted from landfill

‘Joined up thinking’ on Incentives for (a?) Change:
•SME Recycling Support – incentivises collection of recyclate from SMEs•Capital Grants for Reprocessors – to increase capacity in Wales to treat C&I waste, and produce high quality outputs•And now…….Support for increasing Recycled Content for Welsh manufacturing SMEs
