The Blistering Issue of Recycling Blister Packs

In our modern world, we now know there's a better way than producing a product without properly managing what happens to it after it has been used!

A blister pack is a type of plastic and foil packaging that has a cavity for holding a tablet, capsule or lozenge. Blister packs are used for medicines, tablets, and supplements such as paracetamol, ibuprofen, the contraceptive pill, reflux tablets, and thousands of prescription medications.  Blister packs are also known as bubble packs or push-through packs. However, blister packs are a source of plastic waste that cannot be recycled through the kerbside bins, as they are made of mixed plastics, foils and paper.
