Recycling

Leading British ventilation manufacturer Vent-Axia is celebrating Global Recycling Day, which takes place on 18 March 2026. Reinforcing its position at the forefront of sustainable manufacturing, Vent-Axia continues to drive innovation in reducing environmental impact, most notably through its pioneering transition from virgin to recycled plastics across its product range. This commitment was recognised in September 2025 when Vent-Axia was named Best Ventilation Brand of the Year at the Electrical Wholesaler Awards, with judges impressed by the company’s groundbreaking initiative to transition from virgin to recycled plastic in its manufacturing, alongside its wider sustainability commitments that are helping lead the industry.

Vent-Axia is committed to reducing its environmental impact and its strategy focuses on three pillars: Product – Engineer Sustainable Solutions; Planet – Improve Environmental Performance; and People – Connect People Together. Recycling plays a core role in this vision. Vent-Axia’s Group’s sustainability targets include reaching 75% of sales revenue from low-carbon products and for 90% of the plastic it uses in its own manufacturing to be from recycled sources.
