The Eurocell Insider – Looking Back on November

Welcome to The Eurocell Insider!?

In this edition, we're spotlighting sustainability, innovation, and wellbeing – the key themes driving the construction industry forward. Read our update on National Recycling Week, Movember, a new product launch, PLUS the launch of our Neovyn-enhanced Modus system, a revolutionary step in sustainable building products.?

Neovyn: Eurocell leads the way in sustainable innovation?

Our commitment to sustainability is driving transformative change in the industry. Eurocell is the first systems house to integrate Neovyn, a low-carbon PVC resin, into its premium Modus window and door systems.?

Key highlights of the Neovyn-enhanced Modus range:?

• Reduced carbon footprint: Neovyn’s greenhouse gas emissions are 37% lower than the EU industry average thereby reducing Scope 3 emissions for our customers?

• Energy efficiency: U-values as low as 0.76 W/m2K to meet future Building Regulation targets?

• A sustainable future, at no extra cost: We’re absorbing the added costs to bring innovation without financial impact on our customers and the end user.?

“By integrating Neovyn into the Modus profile, we’re offering a high-performance product that significantly reduces carbon emissions, underscoring our commitment to sustainable innovation.”? – Darren Waters, CEO, Eurocell?

“This development showcases Eurocell’s ability to push boundaries and deliver greener solutions, aligning with regulatory standards while maintaining quality and performance.”? – Ian Kernaghan, Head of Products, Design and Development?

National Recycling Week: Small changes, big impacts?

As the UK’s leader in PVC-U recycling, National Recycling Week is close to our hearts. This year, we showcased the incredible strides Eurocell has made in reducing waste and promoting circular economy principles.?

With our world-class recycling facility, we’re proud to divert over 3 million PVC-U window and door frames from landfill annually. At Eurocell, recycling is central to our business model, and we’re proud to be the largest UK-based recycler of PVC-U, processing 46.8 thousand tonnes of post-consumer and post-industrial waste a year. By integrating high-quality recycled materials into our products, we reduce reliance on virgin resources and help create a more circular economy within the construction sector.?

Movember: Mental health in construction?

Last month it was #InternationalMensDay, and we’re reflecting on the results of our Movember mental health survey. A striking 57% of respondents highlighted a lack of mental health support in construction and the trade.?

Mental health is clearly a significant matter in the construction and trade industries and so we wanted to highlight the charities which we believe do the best work to tackle this:?

• Lighthouse Construction Industry Charity - offering emotional and financial aid.?

• Movember UK - raising awareness about mental and physical health issues.?

• Mates in Mind - promoting mental health education in the workplace.?

• Mind - providing resources to manage mental health effectively.?

We want to hear from you. Do you agree that mental health support in the trade is insufficient? How can we, as an industry, address this issue? Let us know your thoughts in the comments and let’s drive positive change together.?

Spotlighting our latest product launch: Euroverge?

Our latest product innovation in roofing, Euroverge, has officially launched! This dry verge system combines easy installation with long-lasting durability, ensuring roofs are both secure and visually appealing. Euroverge itself fits on a wider range of batten centres than others and can be installed on a 12.5degree minimum roof pitch.

Warm regards,?
