Wood and pallet factoids !
The UK is one of the least wooded places in Europe !
![Page 3: Applying the waste hierarchy to wood](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062810/56815b1f550346895dc8d506/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Wood and pallet factoids !
In one year an acre of wood can absorb as much carbon as is produced by a car driven for 8000 miles !
![Page 4: Applying the waste hierarchy to wood](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062810/56815b1f550346895dc8d506/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Wood and pallet factoids !
In the UK there are more pallets than people !
![Page 5: Applying the waste hierarchy to wood](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062810/56815b1f550346895dc8d506/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Wood and pallet factoids !
The term ‘touch wood ‘ or ‘knock on wood’ originates from an a primitive form of tree worship!

The Waste Framework Directive
The Waste Framework Directive provides the overarching legislative framework for the collection, transport, recovery and disposal of waste across Europe, including the UK, and was originally passed into law in 2006.
![Page 7: Applying the waste hierarchy to wood](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062810/56815b1f550346895dc8d506/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
The Waste Framework Directive
With the waste hierarchy as its guiding light, the revised Waste Framework Directive sets out a range of provisions and tough targets in relation to recycling and reuse for both household and construction and demolition (C&D) waste.
The targets in the Directive are:
• to recycle or prepare for reuse 50% of household waste by 2020
• to reuse, recycle or recover 70% of non-hazardous C&D waste by 2020
Alongside this, the Directive details a requirement to set up separate collection of "at least the following: paper, metal, plastic and glass", from the household waste stream by 2015.
Paper Metal Plastic Glass

The 4 R`s – Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, Recovery
Reduce
Reduce - Save money on packaging spend- Less packaging = less producer responsibilty ‘tax’- Less packaging weight to transport- Reduced carbon

Re-use - Saves money on new packaging - No package producer responsibility ‘tax’ on re-
used packaging - Reduced carbon

Wood – Waste Hierarchy Example
Reduce
• Less boards, bearers, block on pallets, crates and boxes.• Reduce thickness of boards.
However – This can conflict with Re-use.No good specifying a flimsy pallet if you expect to re-use it many times.

Wood – Waste Hierarchy Example
Reduce
Re-Use
• Good quality heavy duty pallet such as GKN Blue• High inital cost £10 - £12.• More trips – 10 trips = £1 per trip.
Re-using the same pallet,thus reducing, packaging waste,Raw materials and cost.

• Mainly single trip, cheap and disposable.• At best cost neutral to dispose of.• Reprocessed in board, MDF, worktops.• Ex pallets (packaging) will generate a wood
