The new Amtico Take Back scheme – free to installers, contractors and retailers – accepts installation off-cuts and uplifted LVT from any brand, not just Amtico-branded LVT.
Users order heavy-duty sacks, segregate clean and contaminated material, then book a collection through Amtico’s DDS logistics network. Clean waste can be granulated and returned to the company’s Coventry production line, while contaminated waste can be recycled off-site into traffic-management products such as speed bumps and cone bases. A three-month pilot recovered 42.9 tonnes of post-installation material; the first full year of national operation aims to divert at least 100 tonnes from landfill.
“Closing the loop on material flows is central to our Net Zero 2040 pathway,” explains Barry Large, Head of Sustainability, Learning & Development at Amtico. “By combining dedicated collection with in-house recycling, we are offering our customers, and the wider industry, a straightforward route to reduce project waste and support circularity.”
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on Hotel Designs.
