As one of the world’s leading food and beverage companies we recognise the significant role we can play in helping to change the way society makes, uses, and disposes of plastics, and we are helping to make sustainable plastics a reality. We’ve made it a business imperative to help build a circular future for packaging and a world where plastics need never become waste.
Across PepsiCo Europe, we plan to eliminate virgin fossil-based plastics in all our crisp and snack bags by 2030. This ambition will apply to our UK brands including Walkers, Doritos, Quavers, Wotsits, Snack a Jacks and Pipers, and will be delivered by using 100% recycled or renewable content in our packets.
While we’ve set ourselves ambitious targets, we recognise that tackling plastic waste is not a challenge any one organisation or country can do alone. That’s why we’re continuing to play a lead role in changing the way everyone uses plastics, through partnerships with like-minded organisations including our work with Wrap on the UK Plastics Pact as well as working with our peers as one of the founding members of the Flexible Plastics Fund.

ReNew ELP are launching the world’s first HydroPRS™ hydrothermal advanced recycling site in Teesside, North East England, in 2023. Capable of producing 20,000 tonnes of recycled, fossil-equivalent hydrocarbons annually, this first site will act as a springboard for further global sites by parent company, Mura Technology, based in London. The process uses water at high pressure and high temperatures to convert end-of-life waste plastic back into the oils it was originally made from, for use in the manufacture of new plastics and other products.
The HydroPRS™ technology can recycle the ‘unrecyclable’ – plastic materials currently sent to landfill, incineration or leaked into the environment, such as flexible, multi-layered, soft and rigid plastic – producing from it the ingredients for new plastic, creating a circular economy and significantly reducing carbon emissions. This eliminates the need for fossil resource in the manufacture of plastic.
Instead of continually making new materials as part of a ‘single-use’ culture, Mura’s process creates an infinite loop of creation, use, and recycling.
HydroPRS™ delivers a sustainable, low carbon circular plastics economy by avoiding harmful greenhouse gas emissions from burning plastic and producing premium oils at a lower carbon footprint than the current fossil-based system.

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.

The Lincolnshire Waste Partnership (LWP) aims to:
- Provide innovative, customer-friendly waste management.
- Seek the best environmental options.
- Give value for money to Lincolnshire residents.
- National policy — In December 2018 the Government published its new national waste and resources strategy for England.
- Food waste — The national strategy proposes weekly food waste collections from 2023, in preparation they have been running a trial for food waste collections in South Kesteven to understand the challenges this may bring. They are seeking a sustainable and renewable solution which will be explored over the next few years.
- Plastics — Since the adoption of the Lincolnshire strategy, the world has seen a blaze of interest in plastic waste and how the recycling we collect is handled. Media investigations have challenged waste management practices and raised the profile of accountability and social responsibility.
- Waste crime — The Environment Agency (EA) has an open invitation to LWP meetings providing advice and guidance, the LWP also support the EA in waste crime operations in the county.
- Recycling quality — A separated paper and card collection trial in place from September 2019 with the aim of avoiding any contact with liquids and food, keeping it clean and dry, means they can meet high quality standards of the paper mills who recycle waste paper and card saving vital natural resources. The trial has been a great success and plans are underway to expand collections to more areas in Lincolnshire.
- The wider environment — Driving many miles to collect and dispose of waste increases the carbon footprint for their transport operations so they have worked to optimise routes and are investigating how, in the longer term, they can change to different vehicle fuels to reduce their CO2 emissions.
