With Flat Packs there is always a LOT of packaging. Some companies attempt to use Cardboard for everything, but there are a lot of Companies that still use a LOT of Polystyrene Foam.
While we make EVERY attempt to recycle what we can, sometimes we are limited by resources available in specific regions.
We seperate ALL our rubbish and dispose of accordingly. Some Councils have facilities for recycling EVERYTHING, others only do cardboard.
