Make this the day you set everything up to be recycled, with our new and complete services at Restore Recycle.
Officially recognised by the United Nations, 2025 sees the eighth Global Recycling Day being celebrated and we’d like to say: what a load of rubbish!
Literally.
Individually, business-wide and globally, we need to make friends with waste and regard it as an opportunity. Global Recycling Day calls it the ‘Seventh Resource’, and organisers highlight that it puts some power back into our hands in the face of growing bad news from our environment, as it reacts to the earth being stripped of her resources and emissions thrown up into the atmosphere.
The act of recycling is recognised in the UN’s Sustainable Goals for 2030 as a key component of the circular economy, an economy that currently prevents 700 million tonnes of CO2 emissions every year, projected to increase to 1 billion tonnes, annually, by that 2030 deadline.

Badged ‘Simpler Recycling’ by the government, these rules will mean every business with more than 10 employees MUST separate their rubbish into uncontaminated recycling bins for regular collection. The aim, of course, is to keep resources in use for longer and to reduce landfill; to accelerate progress towards Net Zero, and to enable biodiversity to thrive.
From 1 April, you MUST separate your workplace waste into:
