bpi.recycled products announces plans for Total Workplace Management 2011

Leading manufacturer of refuse and recycling sacks, bpi.recycled products has revealed its plans for Total Workplace Management 2011. The business will use the exhibition, which takes place from 11-12th October, to promote the benefits of its flagship Green Sack® range.

In particular, visitors to the bpi.recycled products stand (Stand D74) will be able to learn more about the environmental advantages of the range. Made from 100% recycled polythene, these refuse sacks not only help to divert waste from landfill but they are also produced from UK waste at UK facilities for a low carbon footprint. This ensures reduced product miles compared to most other refuse sacks which are typically produced overseas – most notably in the Far East.

Green Sacks are also able to deliver impressive functional benefits due to the fact that they are manufactured using a large percentage of agricultural polythene waste such as used silage balewrap. Using advanced technology, bpi.recycled products is then able to remanufacture this material in a way that retains its original strength and tear resistance.

Commenting on the manufacturer’s plans for the show, Rachael Barton, Marketing Manager at bpi.recycled products, said: “As a business, we’re committed to providing sustainable solutions that also deliver superior levels of performance. The Green Sack® is the perfect example of this commitment and we’re looking forward to showcasing the range at Total Workplace Management 2011.”
