The circular ballast material with impact
Ballastproducts.co.uk supplies steel punch caps that you can use as ballast material. These are circular and sustainable. They come from manufacturing companies, where it is a waste product. Our sister company Krommenhoek Metals specialises in recycling old metals. They take this material to a steel plant. There, it is remelted into a new product. This is, of course, wonderfully sustainable. There is no need to mine iron ore from the earth. And steel production is not needed.
At Ballast Products.co.uk, we make sure this product can be used. We check the quality of the material. Then it goes into handy or bulk packaging. This is done externally, by people disadvantaged on the labour market.
In this way, a waste product is upgraded to a new product. The steel punch caps are used to weight earthmoving machines, ships, bridges, lock gates and much more.
- Our steel punch caps rank high on Lansink’s Ladder (source: https://www.adlansink.nl/voorbeeld-pagina/ ). Only Prevention is better for the environment.
- By using these punch caps instead of new steel, less C02 is emitted.
- Thanks to our method of packaging, every order of this product contributes to employment opportunities for people disadvantaged on the labour market.
