Repak has created the ‘Recycle and Change for the Better’ educational programme to encourage best recycling practices.
This is in response to the rising levels of recycling bin contamination in Ireland.

Up to 40% of what is currently placed in Irish recycling bins is contaminated.
This campaign aims to transform participating pupils into enthusiastic recycling ambassadors, influencing their family and friends.

Meet the Repak recycling ambassadors Jenny the Jam Jar, Bobby the Box, Bridget the Bottle, and Cormac the Can!
They will take you on a recycling journey for plastic, cardboard, glass and aluminium, telling you how you can recycle properly as well as some of the fantastic things that can be made from recycled products.

Cormac the Can will also tell you what happens when the wrong items are put in the recycle bin causing contamination.
