Repak Clinics

"Repak was delighted to support easyFairs with their inaugural Packaging Ireland Exhibition. The show was a great success. A great atmosphere over the 2 days between everyone... This exhibition helps companies understand how packaging can add to their bottom line, while meeting corporate environmental and CSR issues. If you didn't attend this Packaging Ireland this year, make sure you don't miss it next year." Laura Byrne, Repak

About Repak

Repak is a producer recycling fund.

Membership of Repak ensures that companies meet their responsibility to the environment and to the Irish public by contributing to the cost of recycling the packaging they supply to their customers.

Over the last decade, membership of Repak has enabled over 2,000 Irish businesses to contribute €180m to support Ireland’s national packaging recycling programmes. This funding supports:

  • Door to door recycling collection services for 1 million households throughout Ireland.
  • Over 2,000 bring banks nationwide for glass, cans, plastic and other recyclable materials.
  • Up to 100 recycling centres that accept used packaging and other household recyclables.
  • Promotion and education of packaging recycling in schools, homes and businesses.

Ireland has achieved a packaging recycling rate of 64% through the financial contribution of Irish businesses. In 2008 this partnership resulted in the recovery for recycling of over 700,000 tonnes of used packaging.

Since Repak’s establishment in 1997 over 4.4m tonnes of used packaging has been diverted from landfill, the equivalent of enough waste to fill 1.9m waste trucks creating a trail long enough to stretch from Dublin to New York.

Every year, the contribution Repak members make to packaging recycling results in a saving of nearly 260,000 tonnes of CO2 emissions, the same as taking over 140,000 cars off Irish roads.

Repak is proud to say that Ireland is now ranked among the best performing states in the EU for packaging recycling.
