## Summary

The East Ayrshire Council is planning a tender for "Market Research – Paint Tin Recycling" within the services category. The council aims to find innovative disposal routes for paint tins with usable paint. The procurement process is in the planning stage, with a future notice date of March 1, 2024, focused on recycling services in the United Kingdom.

This tender by East Ayrshire Council presents an opportunity for businesses involved in refuse recycling services to provide innovative solutions for safely disposing and recycling paint tins. Companies offering environmentally friendly paint disposal methods or paint recycling technologies would be well-suited to compete in this planned tender process for creating sustainable waste management solutions.

## Notice

East Ayrshire Council owns and operates 2 household waste recycling centres. One at Western Road, Kilmarnock and one at Garlaff, Cumnock. Both recycling centres offer many disposal and recycling options for our residents within East Ayrshire. We are continually looking for new and innovative ways to capture and recycling further items. We have recently seen a demand for recycling paint tins. The paint tins would still have wet paint within. We have seen an increase in requests for residents wishing to deposit paint tins that still have 50% + paint still within the tin that is usable. We wish to find a suitable disposal route for these paint tins where the paint within can be re-used and empty paint tins recycled.
