FIT SHOW 2022 PREVIEW
VEKA RECYCLING ’ S FIT SHOW MISSION
STRONGER TOGETHER
The APECS and Ingenious partnership brings an extremely secure and innovative solution to the market .
Confident in the ultimate strength of the APECS AP Cylinder and the ILH Duplex Lock combination , there is a £ 5000 break in guarantee .
» VEKA RECYCLING ’ S NEW dedicated facility for the re-processing of end-of-life and virgin offcut profiles , was completed and commissioned during the two years of anti-pandemic lockdowns . The VEKA Recycling team has therefore been restricted in its mission to show off the facility , which is located in Wellingborough , but more importantly , the opportunity to discuss the benefits and advantages of recycling and promoting recycling , to fabricators and installers .
VEKA Recycling has led the charge towards the recycling of end-of-life PVC-U window and doors frames and has sealed its commitment to the promotion of this valuable material as a good plastic with the construction of Europe ’ s most advanced PVC-U recycling facility , at Wellingborough . With this development , there is no longer any need for such material to be transported abroad for processing .
The company ’ s team is on stand K21 throughout this year ’ s FIT Show to show and discuss the incredible technology by which old windows and offcuts become brand new products , including new window profiles , within just days of being collected and returned to Wellingborough , and how such material actually improves new PVC-U profiles when combined with virgin material .
The team will also advise how homeowners are increasingly interested and impressed to learn that their old PVC-U frames will be re-used , thus alleviating fears about plastic pollution and how such positive messages should be used to secure sales . Crucially , installers and fabricators may also discuss how they can avoid the perils of unwittingly committing waste fraud , by returning old PVC-U frames and virgin offcuts to VEKA Recycling .
Simon Scholes , managing director of VEKA Recycling says that the discussions around recycling have moved on significantly in the past two years : “ The window and door industry is a different place even since the last FIT Show and that includes homeowners ’ attitudes towards the broader issues of sustainability and what happens to their old frames when they are removed . FIT Show provides an ideal opportunity to answer any questions visitors may have about this increasingly important subject .”
