Ateb
Atebwyd gan Minister for Climate Change
Unfortunately, a recent procurement exercise undertaken by the Welsh local authorities did not receive any bids that met their requirements.
We are now investigating the emerging technology options available to us which might offer more attractive recycling rates of absorbent hygiene products. Supported by the Small Business Research Initiative (SBRI) funding scheme, we are currently running feasibility studies with three specialist companies.
Once the results have been secured from these studies, we will be in a better position to determine the nature, and possible location of future investments.
