Every batch we make up will be a little different from the previous. Ultimately, everything’s at the mercy of the method.
Recycled Plastic Sheets. One of a Kind, Every Time.
Our panels are 100% recycled and 100% recyclable. They are made from would-be waste, from a range of pre- and post-consumer material, transformed through our unique manufacturing process.
Supersized panels
At our factory in Wales, UK, a skilled team of local craftspeople hand-arrange and press each recycled plastic panel to create one-off statement pieces for your commercial projects.
Each recycled plastic sheet starts as a supersized 3000 x 1200mm, making them extremely versatile for all types of commercial projects. And they can also be cut down, depending on your requirements. By adopting this approach, zero waste is created as every part of a board is put to use. What’s more, when the decorative panels come to the end of their life, they can be repurposed or recycled – closing the loop on plastics.
Choose an eco-friendly material from one of our collections, or opt for something bespoke. Whichever route you take, individuality comes as standard.
Panel Sizes
Smile Plastics panels are designed for use in a wide range of commercial applications, cut to size as needed. Our standard format sizes are as follows;
Supersize panels
3000 × 1200mmLarge panels
1500 x 1200mmNote
Often the Supersize and Large recycled plastic panels will arrive slightly larger – in the range of 1-5cm.
Thicknesses
5mm, 12mm, 20mmNote
The listed board thicknesses are nominal. Thermal expansion of some recycled plastic sheets can be 2mm per metre over a 10 degree Celsius range.
Cutting and Finishing
We offer a cutting and finishing service on all our recycled plastic sheets here in the UK; from the production of semi-finished parts to finished products. We can work on any scale of project from prototyping and one-off commissions to small and larger batch production. Please get in touch to talk about your project.
Buy back scheme
If you no longer have use for your Smile Plastics material, you can choose to recycle it through the normal recycling channels. Alternatively, we can take back your offcuts, along with any end-of-life Smile Plastics materials. We rework them into new panels, closing the loop and ensuring the plastics can brighten someone else’s day in the future. It’s a true fullcircle life cycle!
