In the 21st century recycling is of prime importance, never before has the term 'going green' been so well known. So often one of the first questions asked of a product is, "is it environmentally friendly?"
While once it seemed perfectly acceptable for domestic and commercial products to be sent to 'out of sight, out of mind' landfills, today society is waking up to the fact that the earth has a finite amount of resources and environmental limits, which we're rapidly exceeding.
Window and door recycling
When it comes to window and door recycling, the materials from which they are made is a crucial factor. While some materials are unusable once their product lifespan has ended and others are only partially recyclable, others are capable of being recycled and reused again and again.
SuperSeal's windows and doors are made from UPVC, a synthetic material which is capable of being recycled many times. Working closely with Dekura, a dedicated waste collection and size reduction company, we are able to ensure the economic and efficient recycling of our own PVC-U waste, forming part of a 'closed-loop' recycling process.
When UPVC Windows and doors reach the end of their useful lifetime they can be broken down, recycled and then turned back into new doors, windows and other UPVC products. Such door and window recycling is becoming a crucial aspect of the fabrication and installation trades.
In addition to this recycling capability, UPVC also has exceptional levels of thermal efficiency, enabling householders and businesses to not only reduce their carbon emissions but also their energy costs.
