A virtual tour of Exeter's Materials Reclamation Facility

What happens to your recycling after you've put it in your green bin? Exeter is one of only a very few local authorities in the UK to own and operate a Materials Reclamation Facility. In this video, you'll see how our team separates the recycling load into valuable streams of material - including five grades of domestic plastic plus industrial fishing nets recovered from the region's ports and beaches.
