Tiverton company pays £24,000 for not complying with regulations

24 Aug 2024

The company is based on the Tiverton Business Park and specialises in the sale and distribution of security access systems. It is giving £24,100 to the Devon Wildlife Trust. The payment is being made through an Enforcement Undertaking. This is a legal agreement between an offender and the Environment Agency as an alternative to prosecution or a monetary penalty.

An investigation by the Environment Agency found that the company had failed to register under regulations on packaging waste or took steps to ensure their waste was recovered and recycled. The investigation found that the company had failed to register between 2001 and 2018.

The sum to be paid took into account how much the company had saved by failing to comply with the regulations, plus a penalty of a further ten per cent.
