Don’t waste World Environment Day! 🌎 ♻️ To mark World Environment Day, we have announced that we will launch the largest ever nationwide Recycling Knowledge Audit. The audit aims to gain a clear understanding of the current recycling aptitude amongst the Irish public. By identifying where we, as a nation, falling short in recycling best practices, we can implement better habits to become more environmentally conscious in our daily lives. Every individual's action counts when it comes to meeting Ireland’s EU recycling targets and today on World Environment Day we are asking the public to recycle and support this by doing the one simple action of sorting your packaging – clean, dry and loose when placing into the recycling bin.

About us
As an environmental not-for-profit organisation, with a social mission, Our purpose, on behalf of our Members, is to lead the recycling and sustainability of Ireland’s packaging, advocate for a new circular economy, and educate businesses and consumers on reducing and recycling packaging. Repak was set up in 1997 to help businesses meet their obligations to recycle the packaging they place on the Irish market. We have over 3,400 members, whose fees fund household recycling bins, bottle banks, civic amenities and business back-door waste nationwide. At Repak, we are passionate about protecting the environment and reducing the environmental impact of packaging waste, while delivering Ireland’s recycling targets for the five main materials. We run initiatives and campaigns to help our members improve the sustainability of their packaging and to encourage consumers to reduce, reuse and recycle better. Over the past 20 years, Repak has grown from a ‘compliance scheme’ to a leading environmental organisation that has helped transform the recycling landscape in Ireland, providing credible knowledge and expertise to many stakeholders on packaging waste, while supporting our Members. For many years, we have challenged our Members to increase the sustainability of their packaging through our Prevent & Save Programme. Our ‘Plastic Packaging Recycling Strategy 2018 – 2030’ set out the actions required to achieve challenging new EU recycling targets. In 2018, we also launched the ‘Repak Members’ Plastic Pledge’, which currently has over 100 of Ireland’s largest producers signed up, pledging to five key objectives aimed at reducing plastic packaging and making packaging more recyclable, while minimising food waste.

Re-imagine it all and don’t waste Earth Day! 🌎 ♻️ Today, on Earth Day, we are asking people not to waste the day and support Ireland’s packaging recycling efforts. Our research reveals a significant gap in our recycling awareness, with only 52% of Irish people correctly identifying what packaging items can go in the recycling bin. We launched ‘Don’t Waste Earth Day’ across PR, print, digital out of home, social and digital. It encourages everyone, from consumers to commercial businesses to sort packaging correctly, ensuring it is clean, dry and loose when placed in the recycling bin. In doing this one simple action of sorting our packaging, we can take pivotal steps towards meeting EU targets and creating a greener Ireland.
