Thousands of professionals worldwide of all sizes - from small businesses to large enterprises - use our sustainable, circular & award-winning lead replacement and flat roof covering to waterproof their buildings.
Our basic raw material is recycled PVB, which was formerly used in safety glass, such as car windows.
After our products' lifetime they can be recycled and re-used again as new Leadax.
Leadax is made to last without loss of quality. The life expectancy is at least 30 years.
Leadax has won multiple awards for its waterproofing products, based on their innovativeness, circularity and sustainability.
Leadax produces fully circular products and thus contributes to making the world more sustainable.
Practice what you preach. Therefore Leadax has the most sustainable production process possible. For example, the entire plant is energy neutral as the entire roof of our Dutch factory is fully covered with solar panels. Leadax also uses bicycles to go back and forth in the plant. Also there is an efficient system for using packaging material. Besides reducing large amounts of waste as raw material for the product, the production process itself is designed to be fully sustainable.
Polyvinyl butyral (PVB) is the plastic foil in safety glass which could not be reused, until now. There is an abundance of PVB waste available worldwide. In Europe alone, 1.5 billion kilograms of PVB waste are added to this enormous pile of plastic waste. Every year. For comparison: This is the weight of 150 Eiffel towers. Besides that, current products for waterproofing buildings are not sustainable, have a large carbon footprint and are (often) toxic. If we want to reach the Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations in creating a sustainable environment, this problem has to be solved.
Sample request is only available in the Netherlands yet.
