The VEKA Recycling Process

Our unique recycling process for windows which have traditionally been deemed "end of life" closes the loop on PVC-U recycling. This means we can create perfect new windows from old, without losing this valuable resource to landfill.

  • Firstly, old PVC-U frames and off-cuts are collected from site in containers. Windows can be accepted glazed or unglazed, complete with ironmongery.
  • Windows are transferred into an industrial shredder where huge rollers break them up ready for sorting.
  • Magnetic metals are separated out first.
  • Remaining metals are removed using a different process.
  • An intensive separation system splits the white material from the coloured PVC-U.
  • Specialist, high spec technology is utilised to pelletise the PVC-U to an outstanding level of purity.
  • Clean, contamination-free pellets are returned to manufacturing facilities.
  • Pellets are extruded into high quality VEKA profile systems and are ready for new window fabrication.
