The group will focus on bringing together different aspects of the supply chain to better understand all the different components and stakeholder views, and to educate involved parties on material value and recyclability. Focus will also be placed on identifying industry wide, self-funding, and easy to access solutions, conducting suitable in-market trials, and managing risks associated with paper cup environmental impacts and legislation.

Members of the PCRRG include Benders Paper Cups, Caffè Nero, First Mile, Grundon Waste Management, Huhtamaki, James Cropper, Mars Drinks, Maxabel International, Mondelez International, Nestlé Professional, Seda Group, Selecta UK, Solo Cup Europe and StoraEnso.

LRS Consultancy managing director Dee Moloney said: "We are really excited to be involved in the PCRRG; we would encourage more organisations to take advantage of the opportunity to help design and implement sustainability solutions that support the development of a circular economy."
