Environmentally Friendly Plastics
Not only do plastics have a low overall lifecycle carbon footprint, including being recyclable, theyare used directly in applications that help preserve and restore the world in which we live. Considering the total carbon footprint, including costs of raw materials, manufacture, transport, fabricate, install, maintain, plastics compare favorably with more traditional materials. Also, plastics are safer to handle and install. When you consider that most plastics are readily recyclable, they can become the most environmentally responsible and safest choice for many demanding electrical applications.
