The Plastic Packaging Tax is a new tax that came into effect on April 1st, 2022. The purpose of this tax is to encourage the use of more recycled plastic. It applies to all plastic packaging produced or imported into the UK that doesn’t contain at least 30% recycled plastic.
The rate of the Plastic Packaging Tax is fixed at £210.82 per tonnes of plastic packaging placed onto the UK market. The Plastic Packaging Tax applies to businesses that manufacture or import plastic packaging components or import packaged goods into the UK.
Several European nations are introducing comprehensive taxes on plastic packaging, with Spain, Italy, and the UK at the forefront.
The topic of Plastic Tax has been under discussion in the United States, but unlike European countries, there isn’t a nationwide plastic tax in place. However, there have been proposals and discussions regarding plastic taxes at the state and local levels.
BX-Earth is available as both the variants, i.e. in cross-linked and non-crossed Linked technology.
