Recycling & Disposal
Claremont currently removes damaged and broken seating from sites for disposal. We follow strict procedures for this disposal. All chairs are returned to our warehouse and stripped back to component form. This will normally allow us to re-build in the region of 25% of the seating into useable product. The remaining components and materials are sorted and disposed of via the most efficient and environmentally sound methods available. All metal and all plastic components are recycled. A minimal amount of non-recyclable elements remain and are collected by our registered waste disposal contractor.
The re-built seating is either used by Claremont as loan product (- many clients have taken advantage of this facility free of charge whilst awaiting new seating), or are donated to worthy causes, including charities, sports clubs, etc. We have donated thousands of products in this way. Beneficiaries of this in the past included St. Mary’s Church in Houghton Green, ‘Youthline’ - a charity supported by O², and the Samantha Dickson Brain Tumour Trust. If further details of the beneficiaries of these products are required, we are more than happy to provide these on request.
