As a company, Chelmsford Roofline respect and support efforts made by other companies to offer green solutions. Eurocell are one of those companies who have proved their commitment to this end. One of their main objectives is to ensure that their business is as sustainable as possible. They believe that recycling plays a huge role in the battle to reduce carbon emissions and tackle climate change.
Eurocell are dedicated to making sure that every single piece of UPVC waste they create is recycled. They also aim to keep tonnes of UPVC out of landfill by bringing post consumer glazing products back into the production process. This includes window frames, doors, conservatories and building products.
Over the past 10 years, Eurocell have invested £10million into recycling, opened 2 recycling plants and started a nationwide collection service. In the past four years, they have recycled millions of frames and thousands of tonnes of production waste. Most of this is a result of their “closed loop” system, which creates a circular economy. This relies on reclaiming and reusing raw materials so that they stay within the supply chain.
The way it works is that the company remove end of life UPVC windows and doors, which are then taken to their own recycling plants. These plants are located in Yorkshire and Derbyshire, where 46,000 frames are recycled per week! The frames are sorted, shredded, granulated and micronised, and a process called ‘extrusion’ begins. This forms the material into new profiles which are used to fabricate new window and door systems.
The process is extremely sustainable, ensuring that waste is reused time and again. This ethos is one of the reasons that Chelmsford Roofline incorporate Eurocell products into what we do. Another reason is of course the exceptional quality of the products.
