DDRS Alliance is not-for-profit company whose mission is to create a global blueprint for Digital DRS. Although a UK company, its membership and scope is global. Current activity includes countries from Europe, Asia, Australasia and South America.
Digital DRS (DDRS) is the next generation solution to Deposit Return Schemes (DRS) and uses container serialisation (unique identities) to simplify a national incentive scheme for the return of packaging for recycling or re-use. The blueprint will ensure all implementations of DDRS across the world are compatible and transparent, by adopting the same standards, simplifying operational aspects for brands/producers, retailers and legislators.
DDRS uniquely enables deposit return schemes to be adopted in both developed and developing countries at a fraction of the cost and carbon impact, and offering the public far greater convenience than conventional DRS solutions.
Its members include organisations from across Europe and membership is growing rapidly. DDRS are keen for organisations to join them who share their vision and wish to remain at the forefront of this game-changing development.

Customers can interact with the printed tag using their smartphone to view recycling information, sustainability stories, and more. The tag can also be used by recycling apps to reward customers for recycling, much like a digital deposit return scheme, thanks to the unique tags preventing fraud and allowing for richer rewards.

Two waste teams collecting bins from over 116,000 homes across Cambridge and South Cambridgeshire have joined forces in a bid to reduce cost. Cambridge City Councils fleet of 27 bin lorries have begun operating from Waterbeach depot, where South Cambridgeshire District Councils waste operations are based.
The management teams for the two councils waste operations came together in August saving over £100,000 a year and with the operations now working out of one depot, further efficiencies will be sought to drive down costs.
Cambridge City Councils waste crews and staff had previously operated from a depot on Mill Road which is earmarked for redevelopment in the future.
The single shared waste management team are now working on integrating the bin collection rounds across the two districts in order to make efficiency savings on fuel and vehicles. It is expected the annual savings from the move to a shared waste service will be around £700,000.
Both Councils already take waste and recycling they collect to the processing centres near the Waterbeach depot.

ReVentas
ReVentas
ReVentas’ Dissolution Recycling technology purifies polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP) to produce virgin-like plastic that can be used in high-value applications and unlock the value in challenging plastic waste. ReVentas’ unique technology uses a solvent to rapidly dissolve PE and PP, filtering the plastic of all contaminants including colour, multilayers and odour, producing a colourless, ultra-pure plastic which can be sold directly to end customers. The technology operates at low temperatures and pressures, reducing the cost of production and making recycling more economically viable, whilst achieving an 80% reduction in carbon emissions over virgin plastic production. By doing this ReVentas are closing the loop in the circular economy and allowing companies to access new sustainable polyethylene and polypropylene to replace virgin resins at scale.

Profile
Morph® is an innovative 100% recycled and recyclable modular construction system which repurposes and reduces plastic waste, encourages long-term investment and supports the circular economy movement.
The idea evolved from concerns about damaging industry behaviours, particularly the throw-away culture in the commercial office furniture and fit-out sectors. Practices widely accepted as the norm, where functional furniture and dilapidations are prematurely discarded to landfill, are having a devastating and long-term impact on the environment and Morph Bricks Ltd wanted to find a solution.
Injection moulded using 100% post consumer recycled ABS plastic, Morph bricks consist of four core components – single brick, double brick, base and top. Lightweight and strong with a uniquely designed male to female connection, the bricks interlock in a staggered brick formation to create multiple designs including walls, desks, tables, video conferencing units, counters, tiered seating and meeting bays. Reusable, every product can be taken apart and rebuilt into a new design. Recyclable, end of life bricks can be recycled into new components without waste.
Complementing the recycled plastic range, we also manufacture Morph Bio bricks made from carbon negative Bio composite material.
