Our services

Creating a world where resources are sourced and used sustainably

WRAP was established as a not-for-profit company in 2000; we became a charity in 2014.

We work across six continents with governments, businesses and citizens to create a world where resources are sourced and used sustainably. 

Working with us means accessing our expertise, know-how on delivering lasting change through our business voluntary agreements, citizen behaviour change, technical support, grants and investments, and policy and insights. We work across the system, and through the value chain. We bring people together and make changes at all points to bring about the systemic change that is needed. 

Our model

Delivering a solid impact

We have a unique ability to bring together governments, businesses and the voluntary sector to change behaviour and attitudes in ways that neither governments nor individual companies can working on their own. 

They recognise our expertise and by working with us we can achieve rapid large-scale change which is both measurable and enduring.

Working in the areas of food and drink, plastic packaging, clothing and textiles and collections and recycling, we offer the following services.

Business voluntary agreements

Business voluntary agreements

We design, develop and manage collaborative change programmes, mobilising businesses, governments, local authorities and other stakeholders to reduce the end-to-end environmental impacts in key sectors of production and consumption – food, textiles and plastic packaging.

Citizen behaviour change

Citizen behaviour change

Based on robust insight and research, we develop, pilot, deliver and evaluate behaviour change programmes to help citizens live a more sustainable lifestyle. Our suite of campaigns, tools and interventions are then amplified by a diverse range of stakeholders who value our evidence-based approach.
