Yes, all materials used are sourced from Europe. The tubes are constructed from PE (polyethylene) and PP (polypropylene), which facilitates material recycling. In the event of disposal, the tubes can be incinerated with only CO2 emissions resulting. By participating in the recycling program, CO2 emissions can be further reduced to less than 0.5%.
The utilization of Aluminium for our Terminals and Junctions contributes to the long lifespan of our solution. Aluminium can also be recycled if there are unexpected damages or if the decision is made to retire the solution after 20 years, ensuring sustainable material usage.
The use and deployment of the solution are environmentally friendly and demonstrate low CO2 emissions compared to other solutions (e.g., sandbags have a large impact on the environment due to the transport and handling of sand to and from the deployment site).
