After initially assuming the recycling label was wrong, James revisits the topic and uncovers how Capri-Sun's newer screw-cap pouches earned certification as recyclable through OPRL and RECOUP's testing process. Along the way, the discussion explores what actually makes packaging recyclable, why some pouches can now go in your kerbside recycling, and how brands such as Heinz helped pave the way. If you've ever wondered why one pouch says "Recycle" while another says "Recycle Back at Store," this episode clears up the confusion.
This episode of Recycled Content, is the 'Rubbish or Not' from episode 62 of Talking Rubbish, which first aired on 2nd October 2025.
While every effort has been made to provide the most accurate information, recycling guidance changes quickly and some advice may become outdated over time. Always check with your local council for the rules that apply to recycling in your area. On the main Talking Rubbish podcast, we include an additions and corrections section where we update anything we may have got wrong.
