I have seen one of these in a nearby park, didn't even know it was plastic until I was this video and then remembered "that wooden table bench wood looked weird" and then it clicked that it was plastic, amazing product!
You can add additives to the plastic to make it fire resistant
Looks nice. Congrats
Thanks in a million. Great content. Awesome imagination. Grade: A++💥
We need these here in the U.S.A and have fishermen get every plastic out the water and have the plastic go the production line. This will create job opening and higher demand production for plastic planks for it is much easy to craft it with and additional have more safer environments also not only that ppl who larp would buy the plastic plank because it would be easier to style the sword better.
Terrific!!!
Square or rectangular frames with 20x40mm boards that can then cut to size. These will then form the basis for storage cabinets, kitchen cabinets or upholstered furniture. You have a winning product here.
Thank you very much sir
It lessen logging, I hope this amazing technology reach our country PHILIPPINES.
Really interested in this
have you ever made mud mats for tracked loaders
Is that product available in popular lumber sizes like 2 by 4 and 2 by 12? Is the finished product solid or hollow?
I wish home depot sold "plastic wood" 1x 2x and sheets. Would be perfect for my small projects
Keep an eye out on our website for any upcoming discounts and sales to our plastic wood products Hal Jordan!
that's a good idea for plastic for example Mr. Kedellimited
Extremely flammable
Incorrect. I set fire to some to check. Self extinguishes unless you keep it constantly in a flame.
We need more details of where we can find plant machinery, the cost to start with new business and training for our staff
We started with a local council goverment grant of £2500 and borrowed £15k fro our brother in law. No wages for the 1stc year and low wages for another 2 years as we built up the business. Demand increased about 30% a year. Expansion meant we still couldn't take any money out of the business as we had to expand and move location 4 times as we ran out of space.
Hello Kedel can you brrief me about the tensile, compressive and shear properties of this material when compared to the wooden products?
Wood will often crack, split and rot within 5 - 7 years, especially if it isn't treated. However, the elements will never cause our Recycled Plastic Wood to crack, split or rot.
Por favor ,indicar dónde se comercializa sus producto en Resistencia provincia del Chaco Argentina ,gracias
Wish I could buy a machine I want to convert pop bottle caps into park benches there's a place in the southern part of the state where I live that does it but they're really hard to deal with so I thought I would try to make my own
So Many People Wanting To Steal Your Idea. I Really Hate Them. When They Find Out How You Do It And What Machines You Use, They Will Make It Cheaper In Their Countries And Do You Out Of Valuable Business..... Do Not Tell Them Anything.
Keep It BRITISH GUYS!!!!!!
Don't worry. They do already make this type of material in China and the USA, but it won't be economical to ship it to the UK. In fact we have sold our product as far away as Australia where they used it to replace slats on old railway carriage seats.
amazing kedel. how about its shearing, tensile and compresive strength compared to natural wood products? a 2x2 natural wood vs 2x2 product of yours.
Hi Ivan, great question! I have a Technical Specification sheet with the correct information on for you. If you'd like to reply to this comment with your email, I'd be happy to send it to you.
Hi kedel, here's my mail account "ivanvalencia10695@gmail.com" . Please send to me the technical specification of the material.. I'm looking forward for a positive response regarding that matters. thank you so much! cheers!
Thanks Ivan! We've sent you an email
Is it available in the Philippines?
Are the boards 100% recycled plastic? Or are there additives other than the coloring?
The boards are 100% Recycled Plastic and 100% Eco-friendly. There are no artificial additives or colouring embedded.
@@Kedellimited hi, do you have your research paper? or written processes on how the output is made? thank you, please notice. we are trying to make a research in helping the environment and this one is of great consideration.
Nice
Is this the combination of wood powder/dusts/wastes and CD plastic?
There are no wooden by-products in our Recycled Plastic. Our products are made from waste plastic, such as CD cases and those found in landfill sites.
There is no wood flour in our products. We found it isn't as long lasting as 100% recycled plastic.
Have you done any tests for offgassing? If you build a house out of this stuff, what will the indoor air quality be?
Hi Jonathon.
Due to expansion and contraction of plastics due to temperature changes, we would not advise making a complete building out of recycled plastic any larger than an eco-shed.
If you'd like to send us a private message with your e-mail, we can send you a spec-sheet with the relevant information regarding toxicity. Thanks again Jonathan :)
How i wish to order these...
Do you have plastic wood, that has a profile to do a raised bed? If so local, distributor near Glasgow?
Yes, we have a range of Raised Beds on our websites that are ready made from Plastic Wood. If you'd like to discuss more in further detail, give us a call on 01282 861325.
Pl. give me the machine cost and material
The price compared to the normal wood ?
Recycled Plastic starting prices are slightly more expensive than wooden alternatives but their maintenance-free properties, longevity, durability and impervious nature to water, frost, insects and graffiti mean that they will last at least 5 times longer than any other treated wooden alternative. We are confident in saying that our products have a 25 Year Guarantee.
Is it possible to build kitchen furniture?
Hi Lalitha, thanks for your comment.
It would be possible yes, however we don't currently have an indoor furniture range. Alternatively you could buy some of our recycled plastic timber profiles to make the furniture yourself. For for information, contact our sales team via their email: sales@kedel.co.uk
Does this warp over time?
Not when installed correctly. We have guidance on our website for that.
what is the name machine?
It's a plastic extrusion line costing about £170k. There are many manufacturers. We started off with a used machine that had been refurbished.
Is this plastic+wood??
pls explain????
No. There is no wood in it as that can attract moisture and danger of warping when standing water remains on it for some time. You are thinking of wood/plastic composite generally referred to as composite. Kedels plastic wood is a synthetic wood with the same weight and density as some South American hard woods. But has none of the disadvanges of wood. It will never rot. Timber merchants tend to frown at us at trade shows.
Is the plastic fire resistant, please?
Yes, our Recycled Plastic Wood is much more flame resistant compared to timber alternatives.
We haven't added fire retardent to our product as it affects the UV colour stability. But it tends to self extinguish unless a flame is constantly applied.
UV destroys plastics . I have doubts over how long this would last. Especially in a sunny climate ?
Guaranteed 25 years. UV Protected to highest levels against fading and material breakdown. It's made from Styrene and high density polyethylene sheet. So it will actually last much longer than that. It isn't PVC which gets brittle over time in direct sunlight. If you know something we don't please let us know.
Can I get the name of that machine
Plastic extruder.
what's is you machine?
Plastic Extrusion Machine
Waterproof?? Fire resistance??
Our products are entirely impervious to water, frost, insects, fungi and algae. Product technical specification sheets regarding fire resistance etc can be found on our website
hi kedel . is it available in India ?
We are based in the UK but we can ship our products to customers worldwide :)
@@Kedellimited I wanted to start this in India how I start?
Do you sell raw wood
Sir your products selling permission india. Order in price per pcs reply me
Do you have a plan to take your investment abroad! You know this will solve plastic pollution for our earth! If u have that plan please let me know! I am from Ethiopia.
We would love to, but we are still a relatively small family business and need to establish ourselves more securely in the UK first. But we are thinking about that.
Hi, i just wana know more about it ..how can i approach u.
Hi Sai, if you'd like to know more about our Recycled Plastic Wood then give us a call on 01282861325 (Monday-Friday 8:30am -5:30pm)
I'm from India...Can u share a email id .So, it would be better way to communicate..
Certainly Sai, you can email us using the following address - sales@kedel.co.uk
Sai Nadh let me know where to contact
We don't have CD cases anymore.
We are still getting them... The EU uses loads for records which they dispense with after a few years.
Why call it plastic wood when it only contains plastic?
Because it has been mistaken for wood as you will see from some of the comments above. It's what you might call synthetic wood and has the same weight and density as some south american hard woods.
XTRALANDIA IN FACEBOOK WOULD LIKE TO GET IN CONTACT WITH YOU!
Hi Hector, thanks for your message! If you know someone who would like to get in contact with us, then here's our contact info... Telephone: 01282 861325 - Email: sales@kedel.co.uk OR you can follow us on Facebook & Twitter and drop us a message on there, thanks! :)
Hi, I am from Tenerife and I would like to present this project, including machinery and processing forms (extrusion, casting and molds) to the local administration. Would you be interested? (@renovablescanarias on Facebook). Greets.
Sell in india your products
Unfortunately we don't have a factory in India (yet!) but we can still ship our products to you if you order from our website: www.kedel.co.uk
Pen writing is not graffiti :)
Makes no difference. Still removes in the same way which is the main point I think.
Nothing in this world will last forever eventually time will break it down
Yes, eventually. But we're talking hundreds of years for plastic to break down. In comparison, a wooden bench begins to deteriorate after 5 years.
these are highly flamable !! warning !!
No, they aren't. Our Recycled Plastic has a greater fire resistance than wooden alternatives.
I prefer wood because its bio degradable
You're right, wood is biodegradable, but that means any wooden product you buy will rot! Meaning you'll have to spend money every couple of years maintaining and replacing it. Ours will never rot, saving you precious time and money. Our products are completely recyclable too. All our products can be re-ground and extruded again to make something entirely new. 100% environmentally friendly.
wood rotting is a good thing. Plastic is better used indoors rather than outdoors as plastic reacts with the sun and releases toxics. plastic recyclable, of course, no doubt about that but outdoor use should be only in cold countries not hot countries, good for winter, not for summer and yes plastic will not rot but it will break with time but its very sturdy.
Hi, Just notices your comment. Our recycled plastic wood is UV resistant. It is an inert product and also contains a stabilizer. The material has been buried for 10 years and when it was brought back to the surface no toxins had been released. I would not consider using treated wood for raised vegi beds, but would certainly be happy to feed my children using recycled plastic wood from Kedel.
From wood it has nothing. Very bad name.
Our products are made from recycled waste plastic and are 100% environmentally friendly. Wooden products cause deforestation which is a leading cause of global warming & climate change. Wood also requires replacement and maintenance within a 5-10 year period. Our recycled plastic products NEVER need maintenance or replacement.
Yeah, my friend, I understand, but that's NOT wood!
And listen, wood can be sustainable with good technologies and managements.
We never say that it is wood, just that it looks like wood. That's why we name it 'Recycled Plastic Wood' on our websites.
Wood will never be as sustainable as recycled plastic though, no matter how much treatment is given to it. Our products will never need any maintenance or management technologies because recycled plastic doesn't rot, it's UV protected and it's completely impervios to water, frost, insects and fungi. Once installed, it will last a lifetime :)
@@sergiovideos997 Then use wood... but we have had fences and benches out there for as long as 12 years with no appreciable changes. The idea is to make sensible use of waste plastic that is already out there rather than throw it into landfill or even burn it like any fossel fuel for energy neither of which is environmentally friendly.
