If your woodworking shop gets through a lot of glues and finishes, you’ve likely puzzled over how you can reduce the packaging waste.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This is where our solutions can help.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Sustainable Eco Crates<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Redwood\u2019s Eco Crates provide a practical low-waste alternative to traditional intermediate bulk containers (IBCs).\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

When you order your adhesives supplied in our Eco Crates, we will collect them from your business free-of-charge, refill them, and re-deliver. It’s like an old-fashioned milk round!<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Eco Crates encourage economical usage too. You know how the rigid shells of IBCs mean that you’re always left with a residue? Our Eco Crates are fitted with removable inner liners, allowing your staff to get at every last drop of glue.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Plus, Eco Crates are space-efficient. Like IBCs, they can be stacked with a forklift. But the outer shells of the Eco Crates collapse when the liner is removed, so they’re only a third of their previous size. That can make a big difference in your storage area.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Our Eco Crates are supplied in two sizes: 250kg and 1,000kg. If you are buying a load of 20kg drums at a time but can\u2019t stretch to an IBC, then you could use our smaller crate and save using all those plastic bottles.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Spray cannister adhesives\u00a0<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Typically, shopfitters and upholsters use traditional spray adhesives supplied in non-recyclable cannisters. But at Redwood, we have launched an economical sustainable bulk sprayable solution, EcoSpray.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

It works in a similar way to cannisters, with a reusable pressure pot which delivers the pressure required to force the adhesive through the spray gun. But EcoSpray adhesive is supplied in either a 20kg recyclable drums or our Eco Crates, which<\/span> can be poured into the pressure pot, rather than fed through from a pressurised cannister.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

By making the switch to EcoSpray, customers will make long-term cost savings. The pressure pot can be used again and again, and the EcoSpray adhesive is nearly 50% cheaper than cannister adhesive. <\/span>This innovative adhesive solution is very environmentally-friendly, as the packaging is easy to recycle, unlike\u00a0 cannisters which can be costly to recycle.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Redwood has helped many woodworking businesses to reduce their carbon footprints…and we can be a great starting point for your green journey. Give us a ring to learn more.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
