Giving materials a second life is an important part of what we do.

At Melba Swintex, we’re committed to a closed-loop recycling process, helping ensure products are recovered, reprocessed and manufactured into new products wherever possible.

Through our recycling programme, products can be:

✓ Returned at the end of their service life
✓ Reground into reusable material
✓ Remoulded into new products
✓ Put back into use, helping prevent unnecessary landfill

Today, we process over 350 tonnes of post-consumer PVC and HDPE plastic every week, turning recycled material into products used across the traffic management sector.

It’s all part of our commitment to manufacturing responsibly while supporting a more sustainable future for the industry.

40 years at Melba Swintex!

Yes, you read that right… 40 YEARS!

Yesterday we had a little surprise celebration for Netti to mark an absolutely incredible four decades at Melba Swintex.

A lot has changed around here since 1986, but Netti has been a constant throughout it all and we couldn’t let a milestone like this pass without making a bit of a fuss!

Congratulations Netti, and thank you for an amazing 40 years!

You may have noticed our Sales Director, Nick Hyman, has been a little slower than usual responding to his emails recently... but all for good reason!

Nick has now passed the halfway point of his 192-mile Coast to Coast challenge, with around 100 miles under his belt.

He's following Alfred Wainwright's famous route in memory of his grandad, who completed the same walk 26 years ago before later losing his battle with Alzheimer's.

So far, Nick has raised an incredible £3,798 for Alzheimer's Research UK.

A huge thank you to everyone who's donated and supported him so far.

Keep going, Nick. Only another 92 miles to go!

In the Wild Series #113

When the temperature drops, reliability matters even more.

Melba Swintex Gate Barriers are standing up to the harsh winter conditions at Zajazd Fojutowo in Poland, proving they're just as at home in the snow as they are on the roadside.
