Are British Recycled Plastic Products flammable?2024-10-02T13:32:19+00:00

British Recycled Plastic Products flammable – Yes it is. If it has a flame maintained against it, it will eventually catch fire and burn like wood. While we appreciate that this isn’t what everyone would like, it is essential to the overall sustainability of our recycled plastic as adding a fire retardant would mean that it could not melt and therefore be subsequently recycled at the end of its life.
(As per the criteria of UL94 horizontal burn test, our recycled plastic has been classified as HB, which is an equivalent of BS EN 60695-11-10:- Part 11-10: Test flames — 50 W horizontal and vertical flame test methods.)

Are British recycled plastic products vandal free?2024-10-02T13:32:34+00:00

British Recycled Plastic products can be vandalised, nothing is 100% vandal-proof,  however, the material is extremely difficult to vandalise.

There are several reasons for this:

The plastic used in the furniture is chemically inert, making it incredibly hard for grafitti from paint or magic markers to adhere to as there is no “chemical key”. If a vandal sprays paint on a bench, for example, it can be wiped clean or jetwashed afterwards, depending on the severity, as it doesn’t penetrate the recycled plastic. Generally, our recycled plastic can be cleaned with cheap, own-brand kitchen cleaner if it has been vandalised by magic marker pen.

The recycled plastic furniture is also very heavy, making moving it a very unattractive proposition to the casual vandal. It won’t end up in the local canal, swimming with the supermarket trollies and traffic cones.

Our recycled plastic does not chip, split or splinter and it is almost impossible to cut with a knife. That being said, a vandal did manage to hack a little off the edge of a table with what appeared (on CCTV footage) to be a machete.

In short, our products do just as well in a challenging urban environment when being attacked by a vandal as they do in a challenging rural or coastal environment being attacked by Mother Nature.

How do I maintain British Recycled Plastic Products?2024-10-02T13:32:44+00:00

To maintain recycled plastic products there’s not much to it really…

Give them a wipe if they get very dirty.

That’s about it.

There’s no need for chemical preservatives, treatment, painting or anything else.

 

Are British Recycled Plastic Products waterproof? Does water damage your products?2024-10-02T13:32:56+00:00

British Recycled Plastic Products waterproof –  Not at all.

They are all able to resist water indefinitely.

They are also salt resistant so they will survive in coastal environments without any notable degradation, regardless of the severity of the weather.
