Description

Tenders are invited to carry out audits of recycling plants in the UK where recycled plastic will be placed on the market for use in food contact applications. Auditing will need to commence after the European Commission publishes its authorisation decisions for processes placing recycled plastic onto the EU market. The earliest the work will be required to start is in January 2021, although we cannot rule out a delay and therefore, we would like to bring this to the attention of prospect applicants.
