Ask the expert: What does the new Plastic Packaging Tax mean for businesses?

Plastic Packaging Tax (PPT) will come into effect in the UK on 1 April 2022. It is a tax with a bold green agenda – to incentivise businesses to increase their use of recycled plastic in plastic packaging. The UK Government has projected that the introduction of the tax will lead to a 40% increase in the use of recycled plastic in 2022/23, diverting plastic waste from landfill and achieving carbon savings of 200,000 tonnes.
