Eurocell has significantly expanded its post-consumer PVC-U recycling programme, rolling the service out to a further 53 branches to create a 142-strong national network for the trade.
The expansion introduces the service to Scotland for the first time, with Eurocell branches in Edinburgh, Edinburgh West, Falkirk, Glasgow, and Glasgow East now actively participating in the scheme.
Working with Biffa and major regional waste management partners, including Rhinos, CTSR, D&G, Avon Reclamation, and PVC Collections, Eurocell says it is providing installers with a localised, highly efficient route to dispose of replacement materials.
Through the expanded network, trade customers can easily arrange domestic and small-load collections via their local branch or by phone. Material is collected, consolidated at regional transfer stations, and transported to Eurocell’s specialist recycling facilities in Ilkeston, Derbyshire and Selby, North Yorkshire, where it is re-ground and extruded to be manufactured into new window and door profiles.
Joy Naylor, manufacturing & recycling director at Eurocell, said:
“We know that dealing with old, bulky window frames is a massive operational headache and a growing cost for window and door installers and fitters. By expanding our recycling network to 142 branches, we are taking the hassle out of waste disposal.
“Our closed-loop system means the trade can drop off waste or arrange collections locally, saving them skip fees and time off the tools. Just as importantly, it gives our installers a brilliant sustainability story to tell their homeowner customers, proving that the old windows they remove are being responsibly recycled right here in the UK, and going back into the manufacture of new PVC-U windows and doors at our manufacturing facility in Derbyshire.”
In 2025, Eurocell is reported to have processed 36,000 tonnes of recycled PVC-U through its operations and achieved 30% recycled content across its extruded products.
