RECOUP Continue to Pose Questions to PackUK While Helping to Form RAM 2027

RECOUP have collated questions and comments from Members regarding RAM 2027, which was launched on 1 July 2026.

Questions were mostly centered on 3 topics.

• Flexibles all to be marked as ‘Red’
• Direct printing on PP / HDPE pots and tubs
• Plant Pots – progress promised, still confusion

The questions, and some of the replies from PackUK, are documented in an updated version of the document RAM-CURRENT-UPDATES-AND-HISTORY-V2026 which can be downloaded from the RECOUP website.

The RAM is available here; Assess packaging recyclability: recyclability assessment methodology (RAM) 2027 – GOV.UK
