Bin Signage, Posters and Social Media Assets

Download these assets to share with staff and students in your department. Let’s make the most out of our recycling at UCL.

The recycling system can only cope with a small amount of contamination (wrong materials, food or liquid).

We want to make sure we’re recycling the good stuff: clean and dry paper, cans and plastic bottles!

If in doubt, use the black rubbish bin.  

Food waste and organic material is sent to anaerobic digestion for fuel; our recycling is sorted and handled in Kent and what’s left and can’t be recycled is recovered for energy in Avonmouth.

Meeting our goal of recycling 85% would save 1,811 tonnes of material: that’s about 151 double decker buses! If recycling one drinks can saves enough energy to power a TV for 4 hours, imagine how much energy and carbon we can save together by recycling 151 double decker buses’ worth of material?
