Closed petition Ban non-recyclable wrapping paper, decorative bows, tags and ribbon.

Ban all non-recyclable wrapping paper, decorative bows, tags and ribbon from being manufactured and sold in the UK.

More details

Many retailers now sell 100% recyclable wrapping paper and decorative bows, tags and ribbon. It is an unnecessary waste to produce any un-recyclable, environmentally unfriendly, versions of the aforementioned products. The UK Government should ban these products from being manufactured and sold in the UK. Many people may not realise that these products are not recyclable. Or they may be more inclined to buy when the product, and subsequent ‘waste’, has already been produced by the manufacturer.
