Upgrade to RPET—Sustainability that won’t cost you more!
We are thrilled to announce the launch of our latest in-house service: the production of high-quality heat bent Point of Sale (POS). Produced in Recycled Polyethylene Terephthalate (RPET) a more sustainable option to PVC at a similar price point. This exciting development is a direct result of our recent relocation where the increased space and improved facilities enable us to bring production in-house.
At the heart of our business philosophy lies a commitment to actively listen and respond to the evolving needs of our customers. We understand the importance of competitive pricing and swift turnaround times in today's dynamic market. However, we also recognise a growing and vital demand for more sustainable and environmentally responsible POS products. We wholeheartedly share this commitment and believe in proactively sourcing and supplying materials that contribute to a greener future for all.
In direct response to this increasing demand for eco-friendly alternatives, we have invested in the capabilities to manufacture RPET products in-house. This new service enables us to produce a versatile range of POS items, including heat-bent holders for product displays, informative ticket strips for shelves, impactful shelf barkers to grab customer attention, and much more. Our RPET material is derived from post-industrial recycled content, resulting in a product of exceptional quality and clarity. It boasts an impressive minimum 40% recycled content and, crucially, is fully recyclable after its intended use. This makes it a significantly more environmentally sound option compared to standard PET or PVC, all while maintaining a comparable price point.
Beyond its sustainability benefits, our RPET product offers tangible improvements in terms of visual clarity. It is noticeably clearer than traditional PVC, ensuring that your messaging and product information are presented with maximum impact. Furthermore, our RPET material is slightly thicker at 440 microns compared to the standard 400-micron thickness of conventional PET / PVC, providing enhanced durability and a premium feel to your POS displays.
We are incredibly excited about the potential of this new offering. The introduction of RPET products is a key element of our broader strategy to facilitate a transition away from less environmentally friendly materials, fostering a greener, cleaner, and more sustainable Point of Sale environment across the retail landscape. We understand that this shift is becoming increasingly critical for retailers and businesses alike, particularly considering evolving regulations such as the introduction of the 30% recycled content requirement and the 10-tonne import threshold in 2022, with these stipulations expected to become more stringent over time. We are dedicated to helping businesses "future-proof" their operations and contribute to the well-being of our planet.
