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

Viriditek的目标是解决“休闲海洋工业产生的越来越多的化石燃料衍生复合废物流”——到2025年达到每年7万吨（填埋/焚烧）；以及“污染世界海洋的塑料数量”，每年达到惊人的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一种愿望，希望用对他们航行的海洋更友好的产品来替换他们的休闲船上的部件。Viriditek将使用独特的可持续材料和循环生产过程，为英国制造的休闲船行业创造一系列轻质，高质量的组件。保证这些产品的碳足迹比市场上任何其他产品都要低得多，同时也是英国高质量制造业的旗手。最初的产品——“旗杆”——将作为进一步开发海洋部件的跳板。Viriditek致力于以“负责任的消费和制造”以及“海洋和陆地生活质量”的联合国可持续发展目标为协调的方式生产我们的组件。生产将在英国本地进行，减少对长途运输的依赖，并使用有机和可回收材料，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海洋部件生产相关的高碳足迹，我们对家用废塑料的使用将在行业中独具一格。

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.
