additive which doesn’t change the way they perform while in use, and doesn’t affect their shelf, but once they’re in landfill? That’s when the magic happens.
“EcoPure attracts microbes and accelerates natural biodegradation. Unlike oxo-degradable plastics (which break into harmful microplastics), EcoPure-treated plastics fully biodegrade – safely and responsibly. No toxins, no microplastic soup – just CO2
, methane and finally nutrient- rich soil biomass. WATCH VIDEO
Mark commented: “Sustainability is important to us, and our Slant6 and Trough urinal mats are made from recyclable plastic, which is a good start, but here’s the inconvenient truth: after a month in a busy public loo, no one wants to recycle a urinal mat. The intention is there, but where is the reality? Unless incinerated, they will likely end up in landfill. It’s not glamorous – but it is the reason we had to think beyond the recycling bin.
“For several years we’ve been incorporating EcoPure into our urinal mats during manufacturing. It’s a clever organic
“Since 2019, we’ve been independently testing our mats at Eden Research Laboratory in the United States, under ASTM D5511 – a test designed to simulate landfill conditions. The latest results show that after six years, our urinal mats are 85% biodegraded and are still breaking down. That’s not just clever chemistry; it’s proof that even the dirtiest of products (literally) can be part of a cleaner future.
“We chose to use EcoPure not because it was the easy option, but because it was the right one. Our urinal mats already led the market in design and fragrance performance, so adding sustainability to the mix was the natural next step.”
