RCF products are uniquely manufactured from 100% recycled waste agricultural polythene films. The waste film is mostly used silage wrap and is recovered from farms through the UK and Ireland. It is this feedstock that gives RCF products the exceptional strength properties which are far superior to its competitors.
The environmental credentials for all RCF products are without parallel. The collected waste agricultural films are recycled into plastic pellets and re-manufactured into RCF at BPI Recycled Products ES 14001 accredited factory in Dumfries. This is the only factory in the UK capable of recycling these waste materials. RCF does not rot, splinter, discolour or degrade with age. It is maintenance free, is resistant to most chemicals and can itself be fully recycled at the end of it's working life.
