More about Sustainability

PVC-U Sustainability

Thanks to our industry recycling partners, reclaimed PVC-U can be broken down and used to manufacture brand new building products such as fascias, soffits and reinforcing sections for use within windows.

Research has shown that PVC-U products have a life cycle of 35 years and can be recycled up to 10 times. This means PVC windows and doors are truly a sustainable property improvement product.

A tree planted for every window or door

We're really proud to have partnered with Ecologi. For every window and door we install, we're going to plant a tree. That means when you choose World Group, you're playing your part in responsibly planting trees. Ecologi are B-Corp certified and together with their partners have funded over 50 million trees so far.

This initiative is part of our efforts to do better along the way of our sustainability journey as we continue to be climate positive.

Alongside trees being planted, we work with as little paper as possible day to day utilising online storage. We have lower consumption LED lighting throughout our buildings and we even have our own 49,000 k/w solar panel set up on the roof of our manufacturing centre.
