What are the environmental credentials of the new ‘Plastic Class’ stock?

The ‘Plastic Class’ stock is one of the most neutral plastics available as it is made from only two elements – carbon and hydrogen.  It is manufactured from propylene monomer, a relatively safe gas which is a waste by-product of the petroleum industry.  It used to be burned off into the atmosphere, contributing to greenhouse gas emissions.  By choosing polypropylene, you are therefore reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Compared to other plastic stocks on the market, our ‘Plastic Class’ polypropylene is one of the most environmentally friendly options available as no dangerous emissions are released during its manufacturing process, no metals added for stability or plasticisers for flexibility.  It is also 100% recyclable.
