Celebrating 15 Years of Sustainable Innovation at Kedel

As we mark 15 years in the business, it’s a moment for us to reflect with pride on our journey and achievements in the recycled plastics industry. Founded in the heart of Lancashire, our family-run business has steadily grown into a beacon of sustainability, championing eco-friendly living and environmental responsibility.

Did you know? We have sold a quarter of a million tonnes of recycle plastic over the 15 years!

At Kedel, our mission has always been rooted in ethical, ecologically sound principles, offering recycled plastic products such as plastic lumber, plastic decking, plastic fencing and recycled plastic outdoor furniture. Over the years, we have delighted in seeing our creations help transform both personal and public spaces while upholding our commitment to sustainability every step of the way.

Kedel: Collaborations & Partnerships

Our collaboration with esteemed clients has been central to our success. From helping The National Trust enhance its historic sites with sustainable materials to providing Lancashire Fire & Rescue Service with eco-friendly materials to create a bespoke memorial garden, each partnership has bolstered our reputation for quality and reliability. We've also worked alongside Silverthorne Studios, Sharps Brewery, and Gap Containers Ltd, each time reinforcing our dedication to sustainable innovation.

A Commitment to Green Principles

For over 15 years, Kedel has drawn attention to the battle against global warming, a crisis that demands our unwavering attention and collective action today more than ever. Already this year, the devastating Los Angeles fires have served as yet another stark reminder of the urgent need to address our environmental responsibilities. Such catastrophic events are no longer isolated incidents but are becoming alarmingly frequent, highlighting the immediate consequences of a warming planet driven, in part, by our reliance on single-use plastics and unsustainable practices. 

By choosing recycled plastic, businesses not only promote environmental stewardship but also pave the way for a sustainable future. As wildfires, heatwaves, and other extreme weather events become all too common, the urgency of adopting sustainable practices has never been clearer.

Our goals at Kedel extend far beyond just providing products. We only manufacture using recycled and recyclable materials, ensuring a reduced carbon footprint for our customers. By sourcing waste plastic locally, primarily within the UK, we maintain a sustainable supply chain that supports a closed-loop recycling process.

Our commitment is further demonstrated in our manufacturing policies. By employing the latest machinery, adopting energy-efficient practices, and utilising environmentally friendly transportation, we strive to minimise our environmental impact. Most of our materials are sourced from within 50 miles of our manufacturing facility, and where possible, we package our products using recycled materials.

Kedel at 15: Looking to the Future

As we celebrate this milestone, we also look forward to what the future holds for Kedel. "The next 15 years are brimming with potential," says founder Dermot Walch. "I'm excited to see how Kedel continues to develop and becomes an even more integral part of the growing demand for sustainable products. Our commitment to innovation and sustainability will remain at the forefront of everything we do."

With a passionate team, ever-evolving strategies, and a steadfast dedication to environmental ideals, we are confident in our ability to adapt and thrive amidst rising awareness and need for eco-consciousness. 

On our 15th anniversary, we extend our deepest thanks to everyone who has supported us, from our clients and suppliers to our committed workforce. It's an exciting time to be part of the sustainable movement, and we invite you to join us as we continue on this path of innovation.
