Our impact

WRAP's work with its partners is making a visible, measurable difference to the way the UK uses and thinks about resources.

WRAP's vision is a world without waste, where resources are used sustainably.

We work with businesses and individuals to help them reap the benefits of reducing waste, develop sustainable products and use resources in an efficient way.

WRAP's objectives are to:

  • Divert 8 million tonnes of waste from landfill.
  • Save 5 million tonnes of C02 equivalent
  • Generate £1.1 billion of economic benefit.

Progress against these objectives is illustrated below. Find out more about WRAP’s impact in the Review of the Year.
