Flagstaff: organic and recycled composite material for the marine industry.

Viriditek的目标是解决“来自休闲海洋产业的化石燃料衍生复合废物流”的日益增加-达到70，000吨（填埋/焚烧）每年;以及“污染世界海洋的塑料数量”，每年高达880万吨。世界各地的休闲船制造商和船主越来越多地表达了更换Viriditek将为休闲船行业提供一系列重量轻、质量高的部件，这些部件是在英国制造的，采用独特的可持续材料和循环生产工艺。确保这些产品的碳足迹比市场上任何其他产品都要低得多，同时成为我们高质量英国制造业的旗手。最初的产品-** 弗拉格斯塔夫 ** -将作为进一步开发船用部件的跳板。Viriditek致力于以围绕联合国可持续发展目标协调的方式生产我们的部件，“负责任的消费和制造”以及“海底和陆地上的生活质量”。生产将在英国本地进行，减少对长途运输的依赖，并使用有机和回收材料，所有这些材料都来自英国供应商。原材料，生产方法和产品都有助于扭转通常与船舶部件生产相关的高碳足迹，我们对家庭废弃塑料的使用将是行业中独一无二的。

Viriditek aims to address _'the increasing amount of fossil fuel derived composite waste streams from the leisure marine industry'_ reaching 70,000 tonnes (land fill/incineration) per annum by 2025; and _'the amount of plastic polluting the world's Oceans'_, a staggering 8.8 million tons every year.Leisure boat manufacturers and owners around the world are increasingly expressing a desire for replacing components on their leisure craft with products which are kinder to the Oceans on which they sail.Viriditek will create a range of light weight, high quality components for the Leisure Boat industry manufactured her in the UK using unique sustainable materials and a circular production process. Guaranteeing these products have a significantly lower carbon footprint than any other available on the market while being a flagbearer for our top-quality UK manufacturing industry.The initial product - the **Flagstaff** - will be produced as a springboard for the development of further marine components.Viriditek is committed to producing our components in a manner which is coordinated around UN Sustainable Development goals for _'responsible consumption and manufacturing'_ and _'quality of life below sea and on land'._The production will be local in the UK, reducing reliance on long distance shipping and using organic and recycled materials all of which have been sourced from UK suppliers.The raw materials, production methods and product all contribute to the reversal of the high carbon footprint typically associated with the production of marine components and our use of household waste plastic will be unique in the industry.
