We are an organisation that has been created to ensure the smooth roll-out and successful operation of Scotland’s Deposit Return Scheme.
As scheme administrators, we bring together key operational partners right across the drinks supply chain from producers and importers through to hospitality, wholesale and retail businesses. We work with them to ensure the scheme is designed and implemented effectively and support everyone in meeting their legal obligations.
The scheme is designed to be self-financing with administrative costs covered by revenues from recovered materials and unredeemed deposits and a small producer fee.
