In this issue of Sustainability Today we have featured Beyondly as our Environmental Compliance Scheme & Consultancy of the Month.
Established in 2006, Beyondly is an environmental compliance scheme and sustainability consultancy with a mission to fill a gap in the market for a customer-centric service. Based in Skipton, North Yorkshire, Beyondly is a certified B-Corp and works with companies obligated under producer compliance regulations, with a particular focus on packaging Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR).
The company also works with small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) who are seeking innovative environmental solutions to elevate their market presence, streamline operations and drive sustainable growth.
The company’s main goal is to share its knowledge with businesses to help them become more confident about their environmental choices and meet their compliance obligations, while excelling in managing environmental data and achieving the sustainability expectations of stakeholders. Beyondly acts as a committed partner, working to empower clients to upskill and grow their business to make positive investments that enhance their market position.
Beyondly’s full circle of transformative environmental solutions embody a suite of services. From Packaging EPR (Extended Producer Responsibility), WEEE (Waste Electrical & Electronic Equipment) compliance, and batteries compliance; to Streamlined Energy and Carbon Reporting (SECR) and Energy Savings Opportunity Scheme (ESOS).
Excelling in the world of environmental data, Beyondly delivers an essential packaging data service created to meet the needs of every business, no matter the size. EPR can be overwhelming, but Beyondly’s technical expertise works as an extension to a client’s business, providing high-quality reporting and innovative insights, while mitigating the challenge of navigating and understanding complex requirements.
Beyondly’s packaging EPR services comprise an evolving data management and submission platform and policy insights content which play a critical role in helping brands manage their EPR commitments in the UK and overseas. Built for efficiency, flexibility and producer needs at its core; the offering enables accurate data handling and a user-friendly interface to support ongoing regulatory demands in the Recycling Assessment Methodology (RAM).
The company’s bespoke approach integrates packaging regulations into the client’s existing business, keeping them up to date with EPR development, the evolving PRN market, and future UK legislation. With a dedicated account manager, specialist support team and data experts acting as an extension of the client’s business, compliance becomes simple.
Following the launch of the RAM framework by PackUK, Beyondly has also further enhanced its platform to integrate recyclability assessments – supporting a more holistic view of packaging impact and compliance readiness. Businesses joining the company’s compliance scheme benefit from its intuitive online tool designed to complete recyclability assessments and provide a clear red, amber, or green (RAG) status in line with RAM requirements.
These advancements ensure that brands working with Beyondly are not only compliant but also equipped with actionable insights to improve packaging sustainability over time. Additionally, Beyondly’s sustainability offerings compliment a Business’ environmental agenda by providing experts across packaging sustainability, product carbon footprints and life cycle assessments.
Increased public attention on the environmental and recycling industry makes Beyondly’s B Corp certification a notable accolade and signals a shift towards greater accountability and transparency in the sector. As a certified B Corporation, the company is committed to balancing profit with people and the planet, putting environmental and societal outcomes at the heart of its services.
Beyondly’s affiliations across the industry enable it to amplify their customers’ voices. Through associations such as the Packaging Scheme Forum (PSF) and the WEEE Scheme Forum (WSF), the company works to shape regulatory change, representing its members’ and customers’ interests wherever possible.
Its committed team is the main driving force behind the company’s influence – as members of ISEP and CIWM and as proactive advocates for associations including RECOUP, WRAP, and OPRL. These close connections allow Beyondly to advance research, foster thought leadership and influence the industry.
As part of this ongoing dedication to fostering the most innovative internal team, the company appointed Alex Hilton as new Director of Policy & Public Affairs earlier this year. This strategic addition to the board marks a pivotal moment in Beyondly’s continued growth; nurturing key relationships with government bodies, regulators and industry stakeholders alike.
As the company looks forward, Beyondly continues to evolve, adapting to the complex requirements of environmental legislation, while prioritising first-class customer service. Helping brands and SMEs manage their environmental responsibility as they grow.
Beyondly’s unwavering commitment to continually strive for a better way has been the key to its growth and development. This evolution has driven it far beyond environmental compliance, transforming the company into a purpose-driven, B Corp certified business. The company’s customer-centric, full-circle environmental solutions are impactful and prove Beyondly is dedicated to promoting better solutions, for a brighter tomorrow.
