At Fall-Pac we are all too aware of the need to ensure that our products are as sustainable and environmentally friendly as possible. The need to do everything possible to benefit our planet is constantly at the forefront of our minds. Because of this, we have created products using the most environmentally sympathetic materials and have designed a dedicated recycling programme for used and/or damaged units.
Under normal operating conditions, our units, which are made from best quality woven polypropylene with the added benefit of UV inhibitors to give them an optimum life span, will normally last for up to five years. If, at any stage of the unit’s life, a replacement is required unit can be recycled in a manner that is both straightforward and, more importantly, environmentally friendly.
The Advantages of Recycling Your Fall-Pac Units
There are several genuine advantages of using our recycling service including:
Making a positive personal contribution to the environment by reducing your business’s carbon footprint. We all have a responsibility to play a part in creating more sustainable business practices. Fall-Pac’s recycling option will help your business to achieve its sustainability targets.
Contributing to a reduction in landfill and incinerator waste. The process of recycling means that the depletion of landfill sites is slowed and that the energy expenditure involved in incineration processes are also reduced.
Reducing the need to manufacture new units by re-using our materials to create a recycled unit. This means that the energy usage and environmental consequences involved in producing new materials and manufacturing new products are avoided, resulting in an overall contribution to the need to enhance the sustainability of the planet.
How to Recycle Your Fall Pac Units
If your Fall Pac unit is damaged and in need of replacement or has come to the end of its natural life and you want to use our recycling service there are two easy alternatives.
Our Dedicated Drop-Off Service
If you are able to bring your Fall-Pac units to our headquarters in Wigan, you should contact one of our specialist advisors in order to make an appointment, at a mutually convenient time and date, to return the item(s). We can then take the unit(s) that you want to be recycled and arrange for the process to be undertaken. If, at the same time, you need us to supply new Fall Pac units, to ensure the continuity of your business, we will be happy to do so.
Our Collection Service
Subject to the location of your premises or the site in which the units are being used, one of our representatives can attend to collect the units that you wish to be recycled. We will transport them to our premises for the recycling process to take place. Once again, to ensure that your business is not interrupted, we can deliver new Fall-Pac units when we collect your products for recycling.
Recycling your Fall-Pac unit is a seamless, convenient and straightforward procedure that enables you to make a valuable contribution to the environment whilst at the same time ensuring that your business does not suffer during the changeover process.
