Stayfix and the environment
The need for sustainability of the earths resources has gained much prominence over the last20 years and will continue to do so as legislation driven by the EEC continues to support the wider global ‘green issues’.
Approximately 92% of waste material from the building industry in the UK is recycled. Recycled aluminium uses only 5% of the energy needed for primary production and 75% of current ingot production is from re-melt and recycled resources.
Unlike other materials aluminium maintains its original strength characteristics. It is also a plentiful resource comprising nearly 10% of the earths crust.
The products of hundreds of new companies reflect this new market demand. The focus in the 21st century is to offer designers and end product buyers products that ensure superior performance and quality standards, which are long lasting, functional and environmentally friendly and which exploit all the new technological solutions that make life simpler and safer in the home & at work.
The actions and the choices that we make affect our planet and its resources. We are dependent upon natural resources for our development, growth and well-being. As a result of this our daily activities reflect the need for maintaining our environment. In conjunction with our suppliers we have therefore developed environmental management systems with continual developmental measures to ensure continuous sustainable improvement.
