The “Polish Recycling” association
was established in September 2015. It brings together companies involved in recycling waste and responds to the need to create a representation of this sector in public life. The main objective of the association is to constitute a reliable and responsible voice for the recycling industry by representing the common concerns and interests of the industry before government agencies, institutions, and governmental and non-governmental organizations. Moreover, the association believes that it is crucial to promote recycling as the most favourable process for the environment in terms of processing waste and ensuring sustainable production.
Only joint action across the industry can effectively represent its interests and reach solutions, such as legislative and administrative measures, that would allow entrepreneurs to conduct business in an optimal manner, while fully respecting the environmental requirements. Moreover, developing and presenting the positions throughout the industry and representing interests of all companies can only be possible with participation of both large and small companies.
