With sustainability a huge consideration for businesses, specialist aluminium fabricator CDW Systems is working closely Technal to strengthen its sustainability credentials.
Part of the Hydro Group, a global leader in aluminium solutions, Technal has a strong track record of innovation and environmental responsibility and is one of CDW’s main profile suppliers.
Last year CDW received an award from Technal UK having ordered 44 tonnes of Circal 75R, Hydro’s high quality 75% recycled aluminium profiles, helping to saving 378 tonnes of CO2 emissions in the process.
CDW’s Group Chairman Jeremy Phillips, said: “At CDW Systems we believe that sustainability is not just good for the environment, but also makes good business sense and we are dedicated to providing our customers with the highest quality and most sustainable products possible.
“By partnering with Technal we are further strengthening our commitment towards a greener and more sustainable future. Technal enables us to provide our customers with a viable green and sustainable option and it’s even better that in using Technal Profiles that utilize Circal 75R alloy as much as possible we can contribute towards reducing our carbon footprint.”
As companies look for ways to reduce their environmental impact and improve the sustainability of their operations, the partnership between CDW and Technal reflects a growing trend in the industry towards more sustainable and environmentally responsible practices.
“Circal 75R really reinforces the sustainability credentials of aluminium but there is much work still to do and we are firmly focussed on continuing this journey,” added Jeremy.
“Working with Technal is the perfect way to do this, thanks to our shared commitment to sustainability, and we are looking forward to this sustainable partnership continuing well into the future.”
In another move to improve sustainability, CDW systems is also now working with Alutrade, the largest independent aluminium recycling company and extrusion specialist in the UK, and Jeremy added: “Moving to Alutrade for dealing with our scrap and offcuts is perfect as it keeps it all within the industry and is a more traceable way of dealing with everything we have that can be recycled.”
Established in 1992, CDW Systems is one of the UK’s longest running aluminium specialists in the trade supply of aluminium window, door, and curtain wall products. For more information visit www.cdwsystems.co.uk or call 01452 414853.
