Recycled Plastic Products are Durable and Environmentally Friendly

If you need to build an outdoors or underwater structure (for example fences and jetties) and were thinking of using wood then think again! Recycled plastic products are both more durable and more environmentally friendly than wood.

 

About KLP® Recycled Plastic Products

KLP® recycled plastic products have been produced by Lankhorst Recycling in Holland since 1975.  They are perfect for many outdoors applications as they are both durable and environmentally friendly.

KLP® recycled plastic products can be used instead of wood for outdoors applications such as benches, fencing, reinforced beams, jetties, pontoons, mooring posts and protection matting.  These products are made from 100% recycled plastic with no impurities such as wood.

They are environmentally friendly because as well as being totally recycled they do not leak harmful substances into the environment.  In addition, these products themselves are
completely recyclable.

KLP® recycled plastic products have all the advantages of wood but none of the disadvantages!  KLP® is easy to saw, drill, screw, nail andstaple.  It can be made in any colour to blend into the environment.  However, unlike wood it does not rot (even in water or harsh weather) or splinter, it is extremely strong, it is not flammable, it lasts much longer than wood (at least 30 years) and it never needs to be painted or maintained.
