Switch to recycled
17th July 2018

EUROGLAZE has become one of the first trade fabricators to start using Rehau’s new co-extruded Total 70 profiles made with a virgin skin around a recycled core.

Martin Nettleton, managing director of the Barnsley based company, explained: “From the perspective of a PVC-U trade fabricator, Rehau’s switch to a sustainable co-extruded core for profiles in its Total 70 range couldn’t have come at a better time.

“We know that retail buyers are increasingly questioning the choices they make with regard to all types of plastics, but, as has been demonstrated by Rehau’s investment in the PVC-R facility to recycle its own frames, the PVC-U window industry is actually way ahead of other sectors when it comes to recycling.

“We’ve created a brand new marketing campaign to promote that sustainability message to the trade, and we will be helping the stockists and installers who buy from Euroglaze to pass it on to environmentally conscious retail customers.

We want everyone who buys our frames to understand that not only are they made from recycled materials, but that the material they are made from can be recycled up to 10 more times as well.”
