The technology used in silage balers and wrappers continues to advance and that means we have to continually innovate to improve our products. The same applies to how to deal with silage wrap film waste. As manufacturers and distributors we are committed to being environmentally responsible. We are in a unique position to 'close the loop' and help create a circular economy in which silage wrap film waste is reused on a sustainable basis.
The government wants to see products recycled into like products, which means waste silage wrap turned back into silage wrap. This is another step forward as farm plastics sector continues to reduce its environmental footprint.
It is important that silage wrap distributors lead by doing rather than wait for the government to impose measures on the industry.
It is good to see silage wrap manufacturers and distributors taking the step to support the scheme rather than have the government legislate mandatory fees, which could ultimately cost the industry more and be less convenient for farmers.This represents more than 90% of the national silage wrap market by volume, which is fantastic.
Welcome all silage wrap manufacturers and distributors to join the scheme and demonstrate their commitment to managing the waste produced by the products they put into the market.
It is a win-win for companies because their customers can see they are doing the right thing and taking a responsible approach to waste management.
