British Glass

An excellent speech from @SarahChampionMP in last week's Westminster Hall debate on #pEPR

We're grateful to Sarah for clearly outlining how the current pEPR proposals, specifically the fees based on weight, will unfairly penalise UK-manufactured glass packaging.

Good news for UK glass manufacturing. ✅

The introduction of provisional anti-dumping tariffs on container glass imports from China is an important step towards creating a level playing field and supporting British industry.
