WoodFlow 2020 (commissioned by WRAP)

The WoodFlow 2020 report, commissioned by WRAP and delivered by Valpak Consulting with industry partners, provides the most detailed analysis of wood packaging in the UK. It reviews the amount of wood packaging placed on the market (POM) and recycled in 2014, and projects future recycling rates and POM figures to 2020.

With input from Defra, the Environment Agency, ACP, the Wood Recyclers Association, the Wood Panel Industries Federation, and the Scotch Whisky Association, the study combines expert insight with robust data.

The findings support evidence-based decision making on wood packaging recycling, compliance, and circular economy strategy, helping industry and policymakers plan for future challenges.
