house names and house numbers made from recycled coffee cups
A cost effective, ECO alternative to slate house names and slate house numbers. Made from recycled vending machine coffee cups our unique house names and house numbers are tough, durable and UV protected so they will not only withstand whatever the environment can throw at them, they will also help to make sure we have an environment!
The process of producing are house names and numbers is UK based, from collecting the cups, to re-manufacture and eventual reuse, so the whole recycling loop is completed here on our shores. There is little point in putting items out for recycling if we all don’t actively look at ways of re-using the material in a useful, functional and positive way.
Recycled products not only save on landfill; one house name can equate to a bin liner full of coffee cups; but recycled coffee cup material has around half the carbon footprint of virgin material.
So far together with our other ECO home and garden products we've all managed to save over 5 million coffee cups from landfill that is enough to fill something really quite massive!
do a little - change a lot
How do you get from a coffee cup - to a house number or house name?
At work place your used coffee cup in the recycling bin.
Your cup will be collected, cleaned and shredded.
This shredded compound is then heated and injected under high
pressure into thin strips. These strips are then sliced into small
pellets, ready for use on a wide range of manufacturing processes.
Under high pressure thousands of pellets are squashed between two
very hot presses. After a short while the pellets have been fused
together to form large flat workable sheets.
These sheets are then sanded, cut, cleaned and assembled into a
variety of lovely products for us all to enjoy.
The entire nation goes out and buys 5 or 6 of these new, clever,
house number products for all their friends and family.
