Recycling Caps, Lids, and Tops

Recycling is now a part of everyones lives in the UK. However, there are some items that many are unsure about, e.g. plastic caps from a plastic container, plastic caps from tetra pak cartons, and metal caps from glass jars. Here is some helpful advice to reassure those who are unsure about recycling these items:

Plastic Caps (from a plastic container)

Plastic containers generally come with a plastic top. The plastic tops can be recycled even when reattached to the plastic container. An example of this would be a water bottle.

Plastic Caps (from a tetra pak carton)

Tetra pak produce a variety of cartons, most commonly fruit juice. The caps for these containers can be recycled along with the carton.

Metal Caps (from a glass jar)

The metal cap can be recycled along with the glass jar. An example of this would be a pasta sauce jar.
