Building a Sustainable Future with Recycled Plastics
At Ezotrade Ltd, sustainability isn't just a buzzword—it's the foundation of everything we do. Our mission is to provide durable, high-performance building materials that reduce environmental impact while delivering superior performance to traditional timber and virgin plastic alternatives.
Our Core Business: 100% Recycled Plastic Building Materials
Our main line of business is the distribution of 100% recycled plastic fencing, decking profiles, and components. These materials offer a durable and eco-friendly alternative to traditional timber construction, with several key environmental benefits:
Environmental Impact Reduction
- Waste Diversion: Every ton of recycled plastic we use diverts approximately 1,000kg of plastic waste from landfills and oceans
- Lower Carbon Footprint: Manufacturing recycled plastic requires 70% less energy than producing virgin plastic
- No Deforestation: By replacing timber with recycled plastic, we help preserve forests and natural habitats
- True Circular Economy: At end-of-life, our products can be recycled again, creating a closed-loop system
Performance That Exceeds Timber
Unlike traditional wood, our recycled plastic profiles:
- Never rot, warp, split, or absorb moisture — even in ground-contact installations
- Require zero maintenance — no painting, staining, or chemical preservatives needed
- Last for decades — with a typical lifespan of 50+ years compared to 5-15 years for treated timber
- Are safe for animals and soil — free from toxic creosote, tar, or chemical treatments
eDrops: Domestic Used Oil Collection Network
We're developing eDrops, a project aimed at establishing a collection network for domestic used cooking oil. This initiative supports the circular economy by:
- Providing safe, sealed storage containers for households
- Scheduling convenient pickups across the UK
- Channeling recovered oil to certified recycling partners
- Creating value from waste that would otherwise clog drains or contaminate soil
Used cooking oil (UCO) is a valuable resource—it can be converted into biodiesel, animal feed additives, and industrial lubricants. By making collection easy and accessible, eDrops helps households participate in the circular economy.
Alginit: Natural Soil Conditioning for Sustainable Agriculture
As the exclusive distributor of Alginit in the United Kingdom, we're preparing to introduce this natural mineral-algae soil conditioner to the UK market. Alginit offers significant benefits for sustainable and organic farming practices:
- Improves soil structure — restores crumbly, well-aerated soil through mineral-organic stability
- Increases water retention — reduces irrigation demand by 30-40%
- Supports root growth — creates healthier root zones for stronger nutrient uptake
- Reduces fertiliser dependency — improves nutrient efficiency, lowering reliance on chemical inputs
- Regenerative and natural — no synthetic additives, aligned with organic certification standards
We are actively seeking cooperation with organisations like the Soil Association to bring this sustainable solution to UK farmers and growers.
Why Recycled Plastic Makes Sense for Modern Construction
Applications Across Multiple Industries
Our recycled plastic materials are used in:
- Agricultural fencing — paddocks, livestock enclosures, estate perimeters
- Equestrian facilities — stables, arena edging, safe barrier systems
- Commercial landscaping — boardwalks, raised beds, outdoor furniture
- Residential projects — garden decking, privacy fencing, retaining structures
- Municipal installations — public walkways, waterfront paths, park infrastructure
Long-Term Cost Savings
While the upfront cost of recycled plastic is higher than treated timber, the total cost of ownership is significantly lower:
| Factor | Timber (Treated) | Recycled Plastic | | ---------------------- | ------------------------ | -------------------- | | Initial cost | £ | ££ | | Lifespan | 5-15 years | 50+ years | | Maintenance | High (annual treatment) | Zero | | Replacement frequency | 3-10 times over 50 years | Once | | Total 50-year cost | £££££ | ££ |
Technical Performance Data
Our recycled plastic profiles meet or exceed industry standards:
- Tensile Strength: 15 MPa (ISO 527-2)
- Tensile Modulus: 1445 MPa (ISO 527-2)
- Flexural Strength: 30 MPa (ISO 178)
- Flexural Modulus: 1225 MPa (ISO 178)
- Impact Resistance: 14 KJ/m² (ISO 179)
- Slip Resistance (decking):
- Dry: 49 PTV (BS 7976-2) — low slip risk
- Wet: 41 PTV (BS 7976-2) — low slip risk
- Thermal Expansion: 0.11 mm/m/°C (manageable with proper installation)
- Temperature Range: -20°C to +50°C (operational)
- Fire Rating: Class E (low combustibility, self-extinguishing)
Our Commitment to UK Businesses
Ezotrade is committed to supplying forward-thinking developers, farmers, landscapers, and construction professionals with materials that:
- Meet today's environmental standards — BREEAM, LEED, and sustainability certifications
- Deliver long-term value — lower total cost of ownership over project lifespan
