Rejected petition Make plastic Tupperware tubs one standard size and shape British standard.

Making all plastic Tupperware tubs, typically used for takeaways/fast food, one universal size and shape will save on the amount of plastic wasted as all lids and tubs will fit each other, drastically cutting back on redundant tubs/lids.

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.

At the moment, this would be a decision for the manufacturers of plastic containers.

If you'd like Parliament to change the law, to set legal standard sizes for plastic containers, you could start a new petition asking for that.

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
