Waste Value
In 2020, in order to be compliant with UNI EN ISO 14006 guidelines and define an eco design of fibreglass laminates, Brianza Plastica started a new partnership with an important waste management to reduce waste consumption and recycle scraps and residues resulting from fibreglass production process.
Basically, almost all scraps are addressed to cement and steel industries in the form of RDF (Refuse Derived Fuel). On one hand, recipient factories take advantage of energetic properties of RDF; on the other hand, they can recover all combustion ashes within the production cycle. These possibilities allow the reduction of the use of fossil fuels and energy derived from non-renewable sources and contribute to minimize CO2 emission into the environment.
This partnership is part of a series of projects the Company embarked on with the final purpose of introducing a circular economy model which can be more sustainable for the field of fibreglass laminates production. Therefore, Brianza Plastica GRP sheets and rolls eco design represents an important sustainable recycling solution.
