WRAP – WORKING TOGETHER FOR A WORLD WITHOUT WASTE
WRAP
Working together for a world without waste
WRAP’s vision is a world without waste, where resources are used sustainably. Our work helps people recycle more and waste less, both at home and at work, and offers economic as well as environmental benefits. We work with a wide range of partners, from major UK businesses, trade bodies and local authorities through to individuals looking for practical advice.
- A focus on preventing waste
- Getting good value for money for the tax-payer and proving it
- Working in partnership and supporting the work of others
- Being flexible and business like
WRAP is funded by all four governments across the UK and the EU and run programmes in England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.
Sustainable procurement is a key objective within WRAP’s current business plan and we have developed tools and guidance for procurers to make their contracts more resource efficient.
