This information sheet provides additional background on the labelling guidance published by WRAP, and written in conjunction with the Food Standards Agency (FSA; in conjunction with FSA in Wales, FSA Northern Ireland and Food Standards Scotland) and Defra Labelling. It also describes the process by which input was gathered from those to whom the guidance is aimed at (food producers and retailers, hospitality and food services businesses, charitable and commercial redistribution organisations and those involved in the enforcement of labelling-related regulations), and contains a list of frequently asked questions and answers.

This visual guide has been produced to help illustrate examples of how the recommendations in this guidance could look, be applied and, specifically, which labelling and design features are most effective in helping consumers reduce fresh chicken waste.

A guide for local authorities to help determine, implement and optimise efficient and effective commercial recycling collection services, including examples of good practice, an overview of relevant legislation and evidence-based approaches to assessing and improving performance.

A key area of focus for WRAP’s Courtauld Commitment 2025 is to identify the best ways to recover products from food waste with the remaining wastes still being recycled in the most appropriate way.

Momentum growing, but more still needed

This report demonstrates our latest research on the opportunities for businesses in the Electrical and Electronic Equipment sector in using resources more sustainably.

F&F has made a conscious decision to be more sustainable, integrating durability into its working practices, from product design to its end of life. WRAP has been working with F&F to help make clothes look as good as new, for longer.

ASOS identified a potential risk in the product durability of blind felled hems on tailored trousers due to hem failure, i.e. falling after washing or wearing. WRAP worked with ASOS to trial a bonding seal on both menswear and womenswear tailored trousers. 

Ted Baker is taking steps to make positive long-term impacts on the durability of its clothing. By reviewing the critical paths for design and development up to production, Ted Baker saw an opportunity to refine part of its quality management process to quickly identify high-risk fabrics.
