Today marks the end of Recycle Week 2024, recognising 21 years of nationwide recycling efforts. To celebrate, we’re showcasing the sustainable qualities of our surface portfolio. Corian® Solid Surface, by Corian® Design, is renowned for its durability. It’s ability to be repaired and seamlessly joined makes it ideal for re-purposing and reviving. It is perfect for projects where long lasting worksurfaces, furniture and fitouts are required due to its versatile design flexibility and easy to clean finish. Selected colours also contain up to 14% pre-consumer recycled content, certified by Scientific Certification Systems (SCS) for stated recycled content. PaperStone®, by EVOSTONE, is a tough, versatile surface made from FSC-certified recycled paper and natural resin. Not only is PaperStone® made from a recycling process, it is also recyclable at the end of its life cycle, by re-polishing and re-purposing the material for future projects. Polygood®, an innovative material created by The Good Plastic Company , is 100% recyclable and made from 100% recycled plastic. Each panel is crafted from post-consumer and industrial waste such as refrigerators, single-use cutlery and electronics, turning discarded materials into stunning surfaces. At CDUK, we’re committed to reducing environmental impact and supporting a circular economy through Vita Nova, our solution for reviving and reusing surface materials, extending their useful life in new applications. Fabricators and designers can support Vita Nova by returning their unwanted samples, off-cuts, end-of life-installations, damaged or faulty sheets to CDUK. Visit the CDUK website to learn more about each of the solutions, download certification, and pledge your support to the Vita Nova solution. www.cdukltd.co.uk Featured images Corian® Laguna Terrazzo PaperStone® Cabernet Polygood® Emerald Ghost #RecycleWeek2024 #YouCanWithCorian #Corian #PaperStone #Polygood #SustainableDesign #RecycledMaterials #CDUK

Throwback to the Ideal Home Show in March this year where Magnet showcased a beautifully designed kitchen within the Dream Home, an immersive and innovative property within the Ideal Home Show.
