Recycled CMS Gap Hider

By combining post-consumer inorganic manufacturing scrap, reclaimed polyester fiber from carpet, wood flour from post-consumer wood fiber scrap, and both virgin and reclaimed polypropylene, a gap-hider panel with 25% recycled content is produced.  Additionally, the zero-waste vacuum forming blow molding manufacturing process returns all scrap and offal to the raw materials supplier to be re-recycled into raw material stock again. The resulting panel is thinner than alternatives, saves 5% weight and 10% costs vs. virgin material while reducing the waste stream and lowering the carbon footprint.
