People are being asked to separate their plastics so they have a better chance of being recycled.

Eifion Williams, chief officer of conservation group Circular Communities Cymru, said that getting the most out plastics is the big challenge in creating a circular economy - where materials are reused and not thrown away.

Mr Williams said it was not a case of "just telling people to do recycling because it's the right thing to do, this is giving them tangible benefits in their hands".Andromeda believes the idea of sorting different types of plastics for recycling is gathering pace "I think there's always a long way to go and there's always room for improvement, but this could act as an example to other people and at the same time we can explore different ideas and move things forward."

At the Nantycaws recycling centre, near Carmarthen, a new re-use project called Canolfan Eto is also helping to deliver a circular economy throughout the county as well as becoming a leader in recycling and re-use in Wales.Customers can buy items including furniture, paint, bicycles, gardening items and much more.
