We get it time and time again, comments and questions to our customer service team asking, why do you sell plastic basin wastes? Where are your metal basin wastes? What’s the point in plastic basin wastes? We’re here to offer some insight into why we choose to sell plastic basin wastes and some of their benefits!
Firstly, their durability;
You may think since these basin wastes are made out of plastic, they’re not as likely to last as long as the metal counterpart, however, this isn’t necessarily true! They are actually more resistance to corrosion than metal wastes. Over time, metal wastes tend to rust, tarnish or corrode, especially when exposed to water and chemicals. Plastic wastes are excellent at withstanding this exposure and maintaining their original condition and functionality for longer.
Next, their ease of installation
Plastic wastes tend to be more lightweight than metal ones, which can be heavy and cumbersome, leading to difficulty in installation with more tools and effort. Plastic ones are much easier to manoeuvre and install because of their lightweight characteristic. This makes them more convenient and user-friendly for our customers.
Lastly, their environmental benefits
Plastic wastes are also more environmentally friendly and cost effective than their metal counterpart. Plastic wastes are made of recycled materials, which in turn reduces the overall demand for natural resources, therefore saving energy. They produce less waste and pollution than metal wastes, which require mining, processing and machining. Plastic wastes are overall cheaper to produce and in turn cheaper to purchase for you, our customers, than metal wastes.
