In straightened economic times, contractors is likely to be forgiven for considering that they’ll’t afford to be green. But the just-out ecoSEAL system from Geocel not solely helps reduce the strain of waste on the environment, it also makes excellent financial sense for contractors. With three of Geocel’s finest-promoting merchandise now out there in eco-pleasant sausage packs, the ecoSEAL system allows contractors to significantly cut back wastage, reducing prices on waste disposal and landfill charges.
Geocel’s ecoSEAL sealants are packed in laminated foil ‘sausage’ packs instead of bulky plastic cartridges. An empty ecoSEAL sausage is more than eight times less volume than a spent cartridge and up to 60% lighter. This offers obvious benefits to the contractor who can save on skip hire charges, landfill charges, and disposal costs. The environmental advantages of the ecoSEAL system also offer contractors a competitive advantage, demonstrating a commitment to meeting or exceeding environmental legislation.
With a landfill scarcity looming while in the subsequent ten years, government and European laws will continue to put rising pressure on the fabrication industry to scale back waste and landfill tax will rise to £50 per tonne by next yr (2010). The Government is aiming for a 50% reduction in fabrication waste by 2012, and with one hundred million sealant and adhesive cartridges ending up in landfill every year the Geocel ecoSEAL system may make a significant contribution to meeting that target.
The ecoSEAL system comprises sausage packs in some of Geocel’s most popular sealants – the best-selling flexible acrylic filler Painters Mate in white, a high performance sanitary silicone sealant in white and clear called Bath& Kitchen, and Window Glass & Frame, a high performance silicone glazing sealant in white, clear and brown.
The sausages are easy to use. They’re simply slipped into a special ecoSEAL sleeve and utilized in a standard applicator gun. For best results, Geocel recommends the Cox Powerflow heavy responsibility skeleton gun. The sleeve can be utilized as much as seventy five instances on regular and lids and nozzles can be reused.
