Plastic pellets have the ability to produce uPVC products that are highly resistant to unpredictable elements, which is a big advantage. Our uPVC pellets are designed to withstand the harshest weather conditions and have a 30-year life expectancy, creating durable profiles for uPVC home improvements. Our recycled plastic pellets will also endure UV rays without losing any colour or fading in the sun.
Using VEKA to dispose of materials is an eco-friendly way to improve your home, and you can then benefit from a newly recycled window that needs little upkeep to maintain its top performance.
What is the Pellet Process?
Recycled doors and windows are becoming more and more popular among home remodeling professionals because of our industry-leading techniques.
You can begin collecting any outdated uPVC doors and windows from installations once we have worked with you to determine your needs. Any production waste might also be categorised under this. They don’t require colour separation or the removal of any metal components.
The uPVC profiles and off-cuts are shredded at our plant, any magnetic and non-magnetic metals will then be removed in two different steps. After being removed, a separation mechanism will shrink the pieces’ size before classifying them according to colour.
The uPVC is then pelletized once the material has been sorted to create contamination-free pellets that can be extruded back into new goods. Even though it has been recycled, the material will have the same level of durability as brand-new uPVC windows and doors.
