Economical development, social welfare and respect of the environment
These are the three poles of a sustainable development, each one is supported by the two others: sustainable development should benefit human society, but minimise environmental impacts.
Minimising environmental impacts means taking into consideration the Life Cycle Analysis (LCA) of a given product, avoiding emissions and using non renewable resources wisely.
Eco-efficiency studies measure and compare technologies based on their impact on the environment (emissions and use of primary resources) and on their economical efficiency (revenue and costs). Vinyloop scores well in LCAs and even better in eco-efficiency.
Other materials pave the way…
Recycling activities contribute to economical development in two ways: they generate revenue for workers and owners. In sectors like steel, non ferrous metals, glass, paper, and wood, secondary materials play an integral and important part in the overall process. This is a good example to follow for plastic materials.
Pioneers in post consumer PVC recycling
At Vinyloop, we consider wastes as raw materials, and recycling as a service to waste owners, as a duty for society, as a step towards sustainable development. We consider ourselves as pioneers in post-consumer PVC recycling, specifically for composite products.
What recycling means to Vinyloop
Recycling is a process that entails collecting, sorting, preparing the recyclate and inclusively processing the recyclate into properly usable items..
Vinyloop contributes to the process by regenerating the PVC and collaborating strongly with specialised waste collectors.
