    Cromwell Polythene's recycling bags can be printed with six-colour messgaing

    A key focus of the Cromwell Polythene stand at this year's RWM show was the company's multi-trip recycling bags, tailor-made for the convenient collection and storage of dry recyclables in flats and tenement buildings.

    Capable of being printed with six-colour messaging, the woven polypropylene bags are 100% recyclable and provide storage facility until they are decanted into communal recycling bins outside, making them popular with those councils who have identified purpose-built flats or tenements as a way of boosting their recycling tonnage.

    “Something like a quarter of the UK's 27.5 million dwellings are flats and tenements, according to the last census,” says James Lee, Cromwell's managing director. “The percentage is higher in Scotland and some other regions and rises dramatically in cities such as London, where more than half of the population lives in flats.”
