Nil to Landfill – what does it mean?
Because we manufacture tens of thousands of new products we have developed a proactive approach to recycling in all areas of our operations. Throughout the manufacturing process we separate all waste including PVC-U, metal, plastic wrapping, cardboard and glass. All our waste is then collected by specialist recycling companies to be reused and used in other areas.
We are currently working towards BS14001, an internationally accepted standard, which outlines how businesses need to put an effective environmental management system in place. It is designed to ensure our business continues to be commercially successful without overlooking our environmental responsibilities. Many of our clients, especially in the local authority sector, choose WeatherBreak because we put the environment at the top of our list of priorities.
