UK6 - Contract Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The "Plastic Film Collections Study" led by the Waste & Resources Action Programme (WRAP), with its head office in Banbury, UK, concluded its procurement process on 12 November 2025. This initiative is aimed at exploring methods for plastic film recycling in collaboration with Swansea and Vale of Glamorgan councils. The procurement falls under the 'services' category and was conducted using a limited method due to being below the threshold for wider competition. The contract, valued at £132,600, was awarded to J&A Young (Leicester) LTD, with a contract period starting on 14 November 2025 and expected to end by 31 March 2027. The study is crucial for determining suitable processing locations for recycled materials within the UK.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses involved in waste management and recycling, particularly those proficient in handling plastic products and civic-amenity services. Companies with capabilities in local recycling and those who can ensure sustainable processing of plastic material would find this contract beneficial. As local councils increasingly focus on sustainable practices and adherence to government guidelines, businesses that can align with these requirements and provide cost-effective solutions will be prime candidates in similar future tenders. Large enterprises like J&A Young, already established as suppliers for such initiatives, exemplify the scale and proficiency desirable in this sector.

Notice Information

Notice Title

Plastic Film Collections Study

Notice Description

We are running plastic film collection trials with two councils - Swansea and Vale of Glamorgan. As part of the trials, we are looking at the options for where to send the plastic material. This is a cost that will be borne by WRAP - funded by our WG grant. There are a limited number of off takers that are able to process the material and we will be very cautious about who we use as there are examples of their being issues with companies going into administration. WG have indicated for example that their strong preference is for the material to be processed in the UK.
