RECYCLING/DISPOSAL INFORMATION

Industrial Grade Rubber

This dairy parlour product is made of Rubber (or Nitrile Rubber). Rubber is a much treasured, highly recyclable commodity that was once more valuable than silver. Modern technologies have reduced its cost but it is still sought after and can helpfully be recycled into a whole host of other products from football pitches to rubberised asphalt to fix our roads.

Please dispose of your rubber dairy parlour products responsibly. Contact your local recycling site or council to find out where and how best to recycle your rubber products locally.

 

 

Silicone

This dairy parlour product is made of silicone. Because of silicone’s high durability and ability to withstand extreme temperatures goods made from silicone are more sustainable as they won’t need replacing anywhere near as often as their plastic counterparts.

Silicone ‘rubber’ is a petroleum based product and after use becomes a stable, non-hazardous, non-toxic, non-biodegradable waste. (It takes over 500 years to break down) It is not possible to re-melt silicone but it can be recycled multiple times without losing its structural integrity.

Silicone recycling facilities are not available everywhere. Silicone usually has to be sent to a specialized recycling company (like TerraCycle) to be properly recycled, where it can be downcycled into lubricants, solar panels and playground mulch.

Please dispose of your silicone dairy parlour products responsibly. Your local authority will be able to advise if it is possible to recycle your used silicone products locally.
