A successful nappy recycling trial with East Devon District Council
East Devon’s Nappy Recycling Trial – A Step Towards a Greener Future ♻️
East Devon District Council recently trialled an innovative nappy and absorbent hygiene product (AHP) recycling scheme—with overwhelming success!
- 100% of participants found the process easy & convenient
- Nappies were recycled into road surfacing & decking materials
- CO₂ emissions were 6.5x lower than traditional disposal
Now, we’re exploring the financial & environmental viability of rolling it out district-wide! If successful, East Devon could be one of the first English councils to implement nappy recycling like this.
