Given that there is an ongoing requirement for plastics in the construction industry, coupled with the need to balance that requirement to comply with the latest Government legislation, it makes sense for house builders and contractors to utilise recycled and recyclable materials wherever practicable.
The British Plastics Federation (BPF) website states that:
‘All plastics can be recycled, however the extent to which they are recycled depends upon both economic and logistic factors. As a valuable and finite resource, the optimum use for most plastic after its first use, is to be recycled, preferably into a product that can be recycled again.’
The benefits of recycling plastics are:
• Less used plastic going to landfill.
• Less oil used for plastic production.
• Less energy consumed.
Where previously, house builders and roofing contractors may have steered away from using eco-friendly alternatives to traditional slate and concrete, due to performance issues of strength and reliability, now that choice has become significantly more attractive, thanks to the invention of Envirotile – a roofing tile with the greenest credentials, which radically outperforms traditional roofing materials.
Envirotile, the UK’s first commercially-available roof tile made entirely from recycled plastics, is five times stronger than conventional roof tiles. Yet it is 80 per cent lighter, making it easier to manoeuvre and align. As you would imagine, this drastically reduces the risks associated with manual handling at height – a boon for roofing contractors. And of course, if any materials should accidentally be dropped from height, plastic tiling reduces the hazardous consequences for those on the ground.
In addition to the major Health & Safety advantages, on average, Envirotile is estimated to reduce a contractor’s fitting time by 25 per cent – a considerable time-saving in the working day.
As well as making every roofing job less labour intensive, Envirotile effectively reduces the carbon footprint of every building project the contractor undertakes. And these days, with more consumers demanding ‘green credentials’ that’s an impressive boast for your company’s marketing literature.
In addition, Envirotile will help you meet the requirements of the Code for Sustainable Homes.
Envirotile is easy to fit, economic to employ – and of course – aesthetically pleasing on the eye.
With less chance of breakages and no wastage of materials, Envirotile is the perfect roofing solution for today’s eco-conscious house builder, concerned with leaving a lasting impression.
