UPVC recycling for post-consumer glazing

PVC-U, or UPVC as it is often called, is one of the world’s most durable building materials. Installed by a skilled specialist like you, modern UPVC makes a stunning, practical, low-maintenance addition to all kinds of residential or commercial property. But what happens to the waste that’s left after you’ve worked on your customer’s home or business premises?

  • Plastic offcuts
  • Scrap windows and doors
  • Aluminium offcuts and metal fittings

As established UPVC collectors and recyclers, we can dispose of it efficiently and in an environmentally-friendly way.

Environmentally-friendly UPVC recycling, not landfill

With UPVC being non-biodegradable in landfill* and readily recyclable (recycling can take place approximately 10 times), hugely overstretched landfill sites are the last places it should go. What’s more, the other reasons for recycling PVC-U makes good sense for businesses like yours:

  • Convenience – we take a big problem off your hands.
  • Legal compliance – we’ll help you comply with the law.
  • Your reputation – people and businesses like to do business with firms that recycle and care for the environment.

Don’t let piles of unsightly scrap windows and doors spoil the appearance of your next completed installation. A quick call or an email is all it takes to solve the problem and help the environment by getting rid of this post-consumer material.
