This is a compliance matter for the Deposit Return Scheme (DRS) operator, Re-turn, I have no function.

However, I understand that Re-turn is engaging with the affected producer currently to address what is a labelling issue. The consumer can obtain a refund of the 15c deposit by returning the empty container to any retailer who operates a manual collection system. Should the consumer have any issues with a retailer accepting the container they should contact Re-turn at .
