Launched in 2019 as a unique solution to help tackle the issue of plastic waste littering the globe, Oltco’ s Recycle Bound solution has recycled the equivalent of 1 Billion plastic straws. Today, it is being used not only on driveways up and down the UK and Channel Islands but also at some of the UK’ s leading hotels and attractions and Jaye Cook and Steve Zoghob, heading up Oltco Kent, have played a huge part in these projects.
Steve Zoghob said‘ Recycle Bound has been extremely successful and we are grateful for all the individuals and local businesses that have come on board.
We have installed multiple resin solutions across Kent and surrounding areas and I’ m proud that we can offer such an amazing product to our customers’.
Recycle Bound is made utilising a mix of resin, stone aggregate and waste plastic( straws, plastic drink bottles and plastic food packaging) from a plastic recycling point, with each square metre consisting of the equivalent of 3,000 plastic straws. Therefore, if this product was laid on a standard 70 square metre drive, the equivalent of 210,000 plastic straws would be recycled in the process.
