PLASTREX is an innovative material with the properties and application opportunities which help it replace wood, and it is even more weather resistant and easily workable than wood. Being produced from household plastic waste, it is also especially environmentally friendly. Plastrex helps reduce the amount of waste polluting our environment by providing the most suitable area of their use and savi
ng valuable wood. At the first stage of production, plastic packaging is transformed into the raw material suitable for plastic production industry. At the second stage, the extrusion method is used to produce a variety of plastic profiles from the raw material. These profiles are widely usable in especially severe and resistance-demanding conditions which would make the service life of wood rather short. The further finishing of PLASTREX profiles is similar to wood: the material can be sawn, milled and screwed together; moreover, nailed joints are even stronger than those of wood. PLASTREX does not rot or absorb moisture and is easy to clean. PLASTREX can be painted and is weather resistant. The unit weight of PLASTREX is the same as that of wood, ca 0.6 - 0.7 per m3. The sphere of application of PLASTREX is impressively wide: garden furniture, fence modules, terrace sub-constructions, flower and compost boxes, garbage container sheds, goods pallets, sandboxes, horse bays, farms, etc. PLASTREX is made from thermally treated food industry plastic packages and is absolutely free of toxic substances.
1 ton of PLASTREX helps save
1.66 tons of CO.
262 litres of oil.
98 million kJ of energy.
23 m3 of land fill space. As PLASTREX is easily workable, anyone can broaden its sphere of application by using the material in any way they wish*
*PLASTREX cannot be used in load bearing structures in places under considerable pressure.
