Yes pet food packaging can be recycled.

RECYCLED
Where?
This scheme, formerly run by small indepedent collectors is now being offered in some large supermarkets.

• We strongly RECOMMEND using the CO-OP as we know their collections are being processed by Jayplas, the UK market-leader in post-consumer recycling.
• We encourage you to AVOID using Tesco and Sainsbury's as their collections are being processed by Eurokey recycling in Poland. A recent investigation has raised questions about this scheme. Read more here.
