LANCHASHIRE, ENGLAND, February 02, 2011 (Press-News.org) Double glazing giant Safestyle UK is stepping up its recycling campaign and making strides in its commitment to the environment.
The company is cutting down on the amount of waste it produces by expanding in-house eco-friendly methods at all of its 40+ branches and depots nationwide, while also expanding its range of energy-saving double glazing products.
Safestyle is encouraging its customers to reduce their carbon footprint, alongside improvements that have increased the green credentials of its window and doors.
The replacement window firm has a dedicated and fully-staffed Recycling Centre at its manufacturing facilities in Barnsley, South Yorkshire, where waste materials are segregated into their component parts, including glass, plastic, steel, and wood.
Heading up Safestyle's recycling operation, Peter Margieson commented: "Last year we as a company recycled over 1350 tons of plastic, which is 23% more than we did in 2009, and 700 tons of glass, which is a 40% improvement. In addition, we almost doubled the amount of scrap metal we recycled."
When Safestyle replace the old windows and doors in its customers' houses, they remove the glass and cut up any old uPVC frames for recycling. In addition, various metals such as steel reinforcement, lead from leaded windows, letterboxes and door-knockers, are all removed and recycled as scrap metal.
Peter added: "We are 100% committed to helping the environment, both within our business, at our installation depots, and through our range of eco-friendly products.
"Used wooden windows and doors are also recycled locally at our depots, and some are returned directly to us at the Recycling Centre in Barnsley.
"Various types of packaging are also recycled. This has helped to markedly reduce the waste from our depots and factory that would originally have been going to landfill."
As part of its eco-friendly green campaign, Safestyle recently launched its energy-efficient
A-rated Eco Diamond Window. The window utilises cutting edge glazing technology, incorporating special glass that allows more heat in from the sun and cuts heat loss by 100%.
The aim is that the new Eco window will help customers reduce energy consumption, so while they are cutting their heating bills and saving money, they will also be helping the environment.
Safestyle, which launched in 1992, is the biggest independent provider of quality uPVC double glazing in the UK.
