Waste management products from Cromwell Polythene
28 January 2014
Cromwell Polythene is among the leading protagonists of ‘closed loop’ recycling, having used recovered waste packaging in the production of its own recycled black refuse sacks for many years, pioneering the need for increased performance from polymers at lower gauges to reduce the amount of plastic used.
The company offers a wide range of waste management products, including refuse sacks, wheeled bin liners, dog waste bags, recycling collection bags, sandbags and
bio-degradable sacks for the storage and collection of compost waste.
Among its recycled blends Cromwell boasts a 97% recycled content and actively promotes the use of this grade wherever possible. The company will, however, supply other materials when only virgin films are appropriate, such as for food use. Both types - recycled and virgin - are marketed under Cromwell’s own ‘LOWCO2T’ brand, which applies light weighting manufacturing techniques without any loss of performance.
In addition to the extensive range of bags and sacks it holds in stock, Cromwell supplies the janitorial sector with ‘LOWCO2T’ aprons, which use up to 40 percent less polythene than competitive products, as well as its ‘Wave’ branded disposable gloves, available in vinyl and nitrile options.
