About
This presentation is grounded in a recent report developed in partnership between Ecosurety and RECOUP, which examines the current state of the UK plastics recycling system and identifies practical actions needed to support its long-term viability. Looking ahead to 2030, the report considers two potential pathways: the risks and consequences of inaction, and the opportunities that could be unlocked through targeted, achievable interventions implemented now. 

Learning Objectives
The session aims to support informed discussion on how industry and policy can work together to secure a resilient, circular future for plastics in the UK.
