The firm is helping achieve this aim by making ventilation more sustainable for installers, specifiers, contractors, developers and wholesalers with its 100% recycled ducting range.

It is investing in the planet and helping customers make sustainable choices with 100% of its PVC ducting made from recycled window frames, while plastics extracted from old fridges are used to create ducting components. In addition, the business has invested in energy efficient moulding and tooling equipment for its manufacturing site, offering increased supply capacity based on demand, while reducing its impact on the environment. This means it is able to swiftly meet demand and supply PVC ducting as soon as it’s needed.

Global Recycling Day, organised by The Global Recycling Foundation, is in its sixth year. Each year recyclables save over 700 million tonnes in CO2 emissions, and this is projected to increase to one billion tons by 2030, making recycling a key part of the circular economy and essential in protecting natural resources. Global Recycling Day’s mission is to promote the importance of recycling to world leaders and to highlight waste as a resource.

“We’re delighted to celebrate Global Recycling Day and the wider awareness of the importance of recycling this brings. Increasingly our customers are looking for more sustainable products and we are aiming to make this as easy as possible for them. Our recycled ducting range offers more sustainable choices and, thanks to significant investment in our manufacturing process, we have increased our capacity and therefore stock levels,” said Clive Britton, senior sales director at Manrose. “Our customers have always known Manrose for its reliability and now we are helping make ventilation sustainable for them too.
