Closing the recycling loop and providing the sustainable
alternative to traditional construction materials and outdoor
furniture by diverting British plastic waste from landfill.

Fencing, walkways, kerbing, ground protection, revetments, street furniture, bollards, car parking and many other products are now available manufactured from durable, 100% recycled British plastics that offer significant performance benefits and cost savings over traditional construction materials.

British Recycled Plastic manufacture a range of recycled composite materials that offer the following benefits

  • Extremely durable – BRP products have an expected life expectancy of at least four times that of timber alternatives, with little visible wear
  • Rot and algae proof – Little or no maintenance is required and with no painting nor preservatives necessary
  • Crack proof and insect resistant – Recycled composite material will not crack or dry out and is impervious to attack by insects
  • Labour saving – There are significant savings in labour costs due to reduced maintenance and replacement requirements
  • Non slip – The surface texture created in the manufacturing process produces a low slip risk surface and does not require the addition of chicken wire. Composite materials also retain latent heat efficiently resulting in a reduced frost/ice hazard for users of walkways or hard standing during cold periods.
  • Splinter free – Recycled composite materials do not splinter
  • UV resistant – Little or no colour loss or sunlight damage recorded on products that have been in-situ for 5+ years
  • Vandal resistant – Due to the surface texture and the materials used in the manufacture, the products are more resistant to graffiti and have proved to be more resistant to other types of vandalism
  • Less flammable – British Recycled Plastic products are more difficult to ignite than their timber equivalents
  • Lower whole life costs – Whole life costs are considerably reduced
  • British jobs – Most UK waste is exported but by keeping our manufacturing in this country we are supporting our own, local, economy

Environmental Benefits

British Recycled Plastic composite materials offer the following environmental benefits

  • Their purchase stimulates demand for recycled raw materials, closing the loop and diverting material from landfill.
  • 1500 plastic bottles diverted from landfill for every 1.5 metre section of a typical raised walkway
  • No preservative required therefore complies with the requirements restricting the use of Copper Chromium Arsenate
  • Recycled composite materials are completely inert and will not leach any chemicals into water or soil even in wet conditions
  • Recycled plastic products are completely recyclable at the end of their useful lifespan
  • Reduction of energy consumption by 66%
  • Production of only a third of the sulphur dioxide
  • Production of only half of the nitrous oxide
  • Reduction of water usage by nearly 90%
  • Reduction of carbon dioxide generation by two-and-a-half times
  • Conservation of non-renewable fossil fuels
  • Plastic production uses 8% of the world's oil production, 4% as feedstock and 4% during manufacture and this is eliminated using British Recycled Plastic products.
