About Us
Our mission is to be a ethical supplier of products. Our products are high quality and have a low impact on the environment.
The best way to have a low impact product is to build it to be reliable. Less the breakdowns more the product will last and cause least usage of raw material. Even if products advertise recyclability and usage of recycled products, still a majority of products end up in the trash and inevitably in landfills. It isn’t feasible economically or practically most of the time to recycle your product. Especially in some areas around the world there is no feasibility to recycle your product at all. Even trash sorted for recycling may end up in the same landfill.
Also, cheaper products using cheaper recycled plastics or lower quality materials may not meet minimum quality criteria to be recycled.
Let us look at PVC pipe as an example. PVC Doors and Windows tend to be ground down and recycled as PVC pipes. The reason is that most of the required material characteristics are met due to the raw material and additives used for making the original door or window. When this PVC pipe finishes it’s life cycle, it may go again for recycling. As it’s already recycled once, the second time additive quality and life cycle issues come into play. If recycled improperly at low cost, the pipe may be brittle and break during installation or bending. So, basically this material cannot be recycled until it is mixed with a virgin raw material. Even some detractors may say that it’s still better than using virgin material. Yes, and no. High scale production requires reliable material quality. It may depending on the raw material be detrimental to mix two types of material and more reliable to use totally virgin raw material.
Best option is to reduce wastage by smart recycling and higher quality that allows better ROI and longer life. Installation costs are also reduced further due to less breakdowns and lower maintenance costs. Most industrial or home electrical or electronic products unlike Mobile phones or other hi-tech items, can provide a 20 year life cycle if designed and made better. So, this would result in a higher return on your investment always and also help the environment out.
