The future of PVC-U recycling
PVC-U is a highly sustainable product, robust enough to be recycled and repurposed up to 10 times without its quality or performance deteriorating. At our recycling plant in Derbyshire, we process up to 12,000 old UPVC window frames per week, or around 6,000 tonnes per year. Once recycled, it is used to create a variety of new products, from thermal inserts to our revolutionary Modus window system. By doing this we are able to reuse almost 100% of our production waste.

Reduced cost and energy consumption, better performance
Wherever possible, we offer a ‘closed loop’ service, reengineering the PVC-U taken from old frames to make new windows, doors and building products for the same supplier. The process uses less energy and gives customers a high performance, more efficient product. We will even collect PVC-U waste from fabricators free of charge for processing at our recycling plant, or directly from trade customers enabling them to avoid costly landfill charges.
