Environmental Protection

We are committed to delivering high performance, sustainable and cost effective insulation solutions for the industrial and built environments, and at the same time, minimising the impact of our products on the wider environment.

As part of our commitment to sustainable development we focus on how our products are made, transported and used, as well as on what happens to them at the end of their service life. We do this across the Siderise Group using a series of ‘Lean’ Principles which achieve:

• Sustained continuous improvement
• Increased production efficiency
• Increased customer value

Quality assurance

We are accredited with ISO 9001:2008 as a mark of our ongoing successful commitment to business process improvement, and we approve our suppliers based on their environmental management standards. Our employees are trained to meet the continual changes in environmental legislation.

Intelligent manufacturing processes

We have invested in smart technology to process our products efficiently, minimising the impact of our manufacturing processes on the environment. This technology helps us to reduce waste, power and raw materials consumption.

Environmentally conscious materials

We use environmentally conscious materials. Many of our products are manufactured from recycled materials which can be recycled again at the end of their life. We have completely eradicated isocyanurates from the production process and all PU based block is no longer foamed with methylene chloride. We also use water-based adhesives.

Waste reduction

All waste is handled by an accredited recycling agency. Our cardboard packaging is manufactured from recycled materials and, where practical, our pallets are recycled. We always optimise our packaging to fit within the minimum requirements meaning less waste whilst still providing maximum protection to all shipped products.
