Why Choose Eccleston & Hart

Quality first, lasts the test of time.

Eccleston + Hart Limited is committed to using expanded polystyrene as efficiently as possible.

  • Breaking scrap material into its bead form using a granulator, then mixing with new bead before block moulding.
  • Compacting scrap granulated material in a Compactor to produce 'bricks'. These bricks are then sent to a recycling depot where various new products are produced such as garden furniture, plant pots, picture frames, roof tiles and many more plastic products, thereby saving on valuable natural resources.
