WIDE RANGE OF PVC-U SYSTEMS FEATURING RECYCLED CONTENT… Sustainable cable management

The benefits of recycled PVC-U Recycled PVC-U is broken down into small chips, impurities are removed and the product is refined to make pure white PVC. It can be recycled at least seven times and has a lifespan of around 140 years. A rigorous quality control process ensures a high-quality finish is achieved every time. Products that don’t come out as desired can easily go back through the recycling cycle again. For more than 75 years, Marshall- Tufflex has been pioneering plastic extrusion and has led the way in

Core Distribution, representing Marshall-Tufflex in Ireland, is partnering with the manufacturer and supplier of cable management to lead the way towards more sustainable cable management. While plastic is often denounced as a polluter, using plastic responsibly in the cable management industry is extremely achievable, according to Core Distribution.

product research, development and innovation, especially when it comes to using recycled material. Post-industrial or post-consumer waste windows are used to produce recycled PVC-U, which is more robust and of higher quality than virgin PVC, for the manufacture of cable management. Supporting sustainable specification Marshall-Tufflex is encouraging the trade to specify and install PVC-U cable management systems with a minimum content of 50% recycled plastic. Core Distribution also calls on specifiers and contractors in Ireland to help drive up the sector’s eco- credentials by integrating more recycled plastic systems into their projects.

Using recycled plastic to manufacture products can considerably minimise

environmental impact and prevent waste products from ending up in landfill or the ocean.
