The Benefits of DMR (Dry Mixed Recycling)

Dry mixed recycling involves sorting and separating different materials such as cardboard and paper, plastic, metal and glass. The sorted materials are then sold to manufacturers who use them to create new products. The benefits of dry mixed recycling include:

  • Reducing the amount of waste sent to landfill
  • Saving energy and resources
  • Reducing greenhouse gas emissions

The UK government has recently begun increasing the cost of landfill, and this trend is likely to continue. There has never been a better time to begin recycling and DMR is the simplest way to begin.
