Govaerts Recycling NV uses plastic which otherwise ends in landfills or is burnt for energy to make secondary plastic used to produce recyclable items that are a sustainable alternative for traditional building materials like timber, steel, and concrete.
The cradle-to-cradle concept is the basis of their business to ensure that no material is wasted. They use recycled material HDPE, LDPE, and PP in a specific proportion sourced from Western Europe. This plastic waste comes in the form of plastic bottles, buckets, packaging and agricultural film, plastic bags, and cups This waste is then mixed with dyes and other additives to strengthen the final product. This is a proprietary blend used to ensure homogeneous mass that is melted under high temperatures and sprayed into molds.
