Construction
and Landscaping products made from 100% British Recycled Plastic
Closing the
recycling loop and providing the
sustainable
alternative to traditional construction materials and outdoor
furniture by diverting British plastic waste from landfill.
Knee-rail 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
supply a range of recycled composite materials that
offer the following benefits
- Extremely durable
– BRP recycled plastic products have an expected life expectancy of
many times that of timber alternatives, with
little visible wear
- Rot and algae proof
– No maintenance is required and with no
painting nor preservatives necessary
- Crack proof and
insect resistant – Recycled plastic 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 –
The recycled plastic we use does 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 buying British we are supporting our own economy
and helping circulate revenue.
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.
