What is RECYFIX?

Launched in 1995, RECYFIX caused real excitement within the industry as HAURATON were previously known for their systems made of fibre-reinforced concrete.

Manufactured from high-quality polypropylene composite, RECYFIX channels provide reliable performance through optimum durability, resistance and stability.

The systems offer total design flexibility as they can be used in a variety of applications, from light foot traffic in residential areas right up to extreme load situations within container terminals. Available in a variety of widths and heights, RECYFIX channels can be fitted with a range of gratings and covers to suit any project requirement.

What are the special features of RECYFIX?

RECYFIX material components
Resource-efficient

The raw material for RECYFIX channels comes from recycled goods used in everyday life, such as packaging, freezer bags and disposable plastic bottles. In this way, valuable resources such as crude oil are conserved and the amount of waste is reduced for the benefit of the environment. RECYFIX channels are also PVC-free and can be fully recycled following lifetime use.

 

Environmental credentials

The use of recycled composite in the production of RECYFIX linear drainage systems has achieved the prestigious Blue Angel eco-label, a recognised award in Germany for resource-saving use of materials. Products carrying the Blue Angel label are certified as being environmentally friendly and reliably considered to help reduce pollution.

RECYFIX resistance to de-icing salts
Resilient

Capable of coping with different environmental influences, the polypropylene drainage channel retains its appearance even when different environmental influences are present (e.g. frost, de-icing salts, UV light and chemicals). They are 100% corrosion-free and can provide permanent reliable surface drainage.

Low weight

All channels can easily be manoeuvred, transported and installed without any heavy lifting machinery. They comply with single-man-lift which makes for efficient and cost-effective handling on-site.

RECYFIX has durability by car traffic
Stability

RECYFIX has exceptional strength and durability as it can withstand dynamic forces and high traffic loads up to an F 900 load class.
