What does it mean to join Repak's Team Green?
We launched Team Green in 2018 to help Ireland increase recycling rates for packaging waste. We work with our Members to increase the recyclability of their packaging and we are now reaching out to consumers, schools communities and business organisations to ask everyone to make a difference collectively by placing the right thing in the right bin - clean, dry and loose

Latest News
All NewsTo celebrate the third year of our Team Green initiative we are calling on households across the nation to find Ireland’s newest Repak Team Green Leaders. We are asking the public to join Anna Geary, Paul and Gary O’Donovan, Paul McGrath, Roz Purcell and Bobby Kerr in leading the charge to increase packaging recycling in Ireland.
In the last few months, the people of Ireland have demonstrated the power of working together to achieve a common goal more than ever. While the Irish public’s teamwork has been evident since the beginning of the Covid-19 pandemic, what perhaps many may not realise is how effective the nation has been, coming together to protect Ireland’s environment and improving their recycling behaviours. Repak has seen that recycling rates are up and contamination in the recycling bins are down.
Do you know where to dispose of items that can’t go into your household recycling bin? It’s very important that you dispose of your waste correctly or you risk contaminating your recycling bin. Nappies, wipes, bags of ash, clothes and garden waste are the worst offenders.
