We have almost zero waste when our sheet is manufactured with all off cuts being reprocessed.
When our boards are recycled, the higher grade pellets are used to produce our recycled sheet. Lower grade pellets are used to make items such as garden planters and furniture, compost bins and vehicle parts including car bumpers. It is also used to manufacture the dreaded speed bumps.
During the recycling process, the PP granules are re-heated to 400 degrees, unlike other plastics PP does not give off toxic gases during the process.
It is accepted that polypropylene can be recycled up to 4 times before there is a negative impact on the materials structure.
As a signage company we know we have a serious responsibility to the environment to ensure our industry’s future and we are continuously working on ways to reduce our impact of plastic waste and operating more sustainably. We believe in a greener future!
We are the only national board supplier, printing on recycled material with its unique grey back and are the only company that offer a national recycling service free of charge (T&C’s apply). This is a service that we offer to all of our clients; if we are delivering boards on our own transport, we will collect any waste boards from your board erector during the delivery, to ensure the end of life boards avoid landfill.
