ECO FRIENDLY FURNITURE
At Cladco, we’re committed to creating positive environmental change through recyclable, responsible and renewable design. Our recycled plastic urban furniture reflects that promise, reducing landfill waste and protecting trees by repurposing UK plastic into durable outdoor products. For example, one Octagonal 8 picnic table reuses 6,775 plastic bottles and saves 189.7 kg of carbon from entering landfill. Read our Environmental Policy here.
HEAVY DUTY AND VANDAL RESISTANT
Our recycled plastic urban furniture combines strength, stability and long-term durability, perfect for busy public spaces and high-traffic environments. Unlike timber, it won’t crack, warp or splinter, and requires no ongoing upkeep. Resistant to weather, rot, mould and vandalism, it’s an ideal zero-maintenance choice for councils, schools, hospitality venues and parks. Cleaning is simple too — just a quick wash with a jet washer is all that’s required.
FAQs
How is your recycled plastic made?
Our recycled plastic street furniture is manufactured in the UK using 100% UK-sourced post-consumer plastic waste. This plastic waste, comprising discarded packaging, including items collected from major retailers such as Tesco and Marks & Spencer, is processed and formed into solid, timber-like profiles. These profiles are then used to create durable, weatherproof and carbon-negative outdoor furniture products that can last well over a century.
For a more detailed look at how the process works, see our How Our Recycled Plastic is Made blog post.
Is recycled plastic better than wood for urban furniture?
Yes. Recycled plastic offers several advantages over traditional timber when used for urban and public furniture. Whereas wood is prone to rotting, warping, splintering or absorbing moisture, making it ideal for outdoor environments exposed to the elements. It’s also vandal-resistant, maintenance-free, and dries quickly after rainfall, reducing both upkeep and long-term costs.
Because it’s made from 100% recycled UK plastic waste, using this furniture helps reduce landfill waste and carbon emissions, making it the more sustainable and cost-effective choice for councils, schools, hospitality venues and community spaces.
How long will recycled plastic furniture last?
Our recycled plastic furniture has an impressive lifespan of up to 120 years. Unlike timber, which decays faster and requires regular treatment or replacement, recycled plastic street furniture is built to stand the test of time.
