Alternative to Single Use Plastic
It is estimated our industry disposes of 2 million plastic sealant cartridges each week in the UK.
This contributes to a significant amount of single use plastic, in an industry which consumes nearly a quarter of all plastic.
Alternative ‘foil sausages’ or ‘chubs’ are readily available for all sealant applications and can reduce waste by up to 95%.
The benefits include
- Chubs contain more sealant per tube .
- Waste volume is decreased significantly as only a foil casing disc remains after use.
- Most if not all the product can be discharged leaving no product residue left in the chub unlike plastic sealant cartridges (which often leaves hazardous packaging for disposal).
