The 9th Repak Green Christmas was launched today (Monday 21st Dec '09).

As households around the country wrap their presents and stock up with extra food and drink Repak is asking people to keep a green eye on the extra 75,000 tonnes of packaging from biscuit tins and beer bottles, to toy boxes and wrapping paper that could be recycled.

Repak aims to collect and recycle 48% of the Christmas packaging waste generated over the holiday period. It is estimated that a massive 75,000 tonnes of packaging will be generated by Irish householders this Christmas.

This Christmas Repak has created 4 radio ads to thank people for their recycling efforts and to ask them to keep up their recycling rituals over Christmas.
