Community Tree Tube Gathering!!!

Well the first tree tube removal event went remarkably well on the 16th October. Almost 40 willing volunteers turned up at the Mayflower Wood Community Woodland many of whom were from Immingham Air Cadets.

The keen volunteers braved the bracing elements and traversed the chosen wing of the woodland like a swarm of locusts, quickly returning bulk bags full of the said tree tubes, where another team hastilly wrapped the tubes together in 10's so as to reduce the overall volume.

Almost 10,000 tubes were removed over a period of 2 to 3 hours by the team of volunteers which will be forward delivered to Rainbow Professional in Hull for reprocessing, diverting what would otherwise be landfill.

Rainbow recently took delivery of and commissioned more equipment which will enable the efficient reprocessing of the waste plastic, and will also enable Rainbow to accept more contaminated streams of waste plastic for recycling.

Rite Edge Demand Higher Than Ever

Stock turnaround since the last delivery just 10 days ago has been the fastest since Rainbow Professional first began distributing the extremely popular range. 

We still have stocks of C533 - Green, C534 - Black and C531 - Natural Aluminium, just none of C532 - Brown.

IOG Saltex

Rainbow Professional again exhibited at the IOG Saltex Exhibition earlier this month with the amazing aluminium edgings now known as Rite Edge. This year saw the inclusion of the new and additional range of edgings known as Stable Edge.

Stable Edge has many of the properties Rite Edge, the lawn and border edging has but in addition, many others that  it doesn't. Falling under the Rite Edge banner, the statement Rainbow Professional can now clearly make because of these new and exciting products, is that there is now a Rite Edge for every kind of edging application from ornate formal lawns and borders to rubber safety surfacing and resin bonded aggregates.

Below are some images of our exhibit at the IOG Saltex Exhibition showing our range of edgings in a variety of applications.

Defender Tree Shelters

Tree planting season is nearly upon us and Rainbow Professional are pleased to be able to announce that they will once again be offering the amazing Defender Pro Tree Shelter into the marketplace.

the Defender Tree Shelter is quite unlike any other tree shelters currently available in the marketplace, because of its flat pack nature, this feature makes the product much more cost effective for transportation both from the factory to site, and also at the end of the products lifecycle for recycling.

Currently, very few of the tree tubes used in forestry and landscaping are recycled due to the high costs involved in making recycling viable, however due to legislation changes on waste management, tree shelter and tree spiral recycling has to be looked at in an environmentally conscious way. Rainbow will be looking at ways of recycling these in the most cost effecive and environmentally sound manner as part of their ongoing, plastics reprocessing expansion programme - watch this space for further information.

Hexapath

For those of you that don't know, Rainbow Professional also manufacture the hugely popular and very British product - Hexapath. Hexapath is a ground reinforcement and stabilisation system made entirely from 100% recycled plastics which are 100% UK sourced. The product is made entirely on Rainbow's manufacturing site in Hull, East Yorkshire.

Hexapath can be used to create stabilised grass walkways to avoid the balding effect of frequently trafficked areas, and can also be used to stabilise loose gravel surfaces too making historically problematic, decorative gravel driveways far more accessible and easier to use yet still retaining the natural beauty gravel driveways offer.

Popularity of Rite Edge prompts change in minimum order qty's

The popular brand Rite Edge as sold by Rainbow continues to grow from strength to strength. and due to record visitor numbers has prompted Rainbow to re-evaluate the minimum order qty's on the Rite Edge Website.

Previously, Rite Edge was only available in complete packs of 34m, which equates to 14 lengths each being 2.44m long. The new move enables the general public the opportunity of buying the most popular permanent landscape edging for the smaller domestic garden.

John Stobart said, "While we know that Rite Edge is the most popular landsscape edging out there, we also know that there are many potential customers who become frustrated at not being able to buy smaller quantities. We hope that this move will make Rite Edge the even more obvious choice when it comes to choosing the best garden edgings."

Rainbow will continue to develop all their edgings with new and exciting products to complement the range on the horizon. Keep dropping by to find out more.
