Yesterday was International Women in Engineering Day, and who better to feature than our very own Stacey - who holds the title of Mechanical/Electrical Maintenance Engineer.

With 13 years of engineering experience so far, she was encouraged to enter the profession due to her love of problem solving and wanting to learn how things work - including the whole manufacturing process.

Her advice to any girls or women who may be considering a career in engineering - "do it - you won't regret it!"

Today is the first day of Housing 2025 (24-26th June at Manchester Central) where we are exhibiting to support our customer British Recycled Plastic on their stand A44, championing the power of sustainable building materials.

Come along to explore high quality, 100% recycled plastic products that are becoming the future of housing and infrastructure - our team will be happy to show you around....

Happy World Rainforest Day from everyone at HAHN Plastics! 🌱

Did you know that rainforests cover less than 3% of Earth’s land but are home to 40–75% of all plant and animal species? They’re often dubbed the “world’s largest pharmacy”- over a quarter of our medicines come from rainforest biodiversity.

But here's a worrying statistic: each minute, the world loses an area of tropical forest the size of 40 football pitches rainforest. And in 2023 alone, deforestation wiped out an area equal to Switzerland -that’s 10 football pitches a minute, driven largely by expanding agriculture.

At HAHN Plastics, we believe in reshaping how we think about building materials. Traditional timber often contributes to rainforest loss, but there are smarter, more sustainable alternatives today:

✅ Recycled and bio-based plastics reduce pressure on forests,
✅ Engineered wood from certified sustainable sources helps preserve vital ecosystems,
✅ Composite materials offer strength and durability without chopping down ancient trees.

By choosing these alternatives, architects, builders, and specifiers can help ease demand on rainforest timber—and drive demand for responsible manufacturing.

What can you do today?
❓ Ask: is our timber certified (FSC or PEFC)?
❓ Can we switch to recycled or bio-based plastic products?
❓ How about exploring composites for decking, cladding, insulation?

Our choices ripple out: every time we opt for sustainable materials, we're voting for rainforest preservation, biodiversity, cleaner air—and a brighter future.

Commit to sourcing responsibly and help protect these vital ecosystems, not just today, but every day.

🔥 2023 was the hottest year in recorded history. The ten hottest years have all occurred since 2014. (Source: NASA). 🌡️ Climate change isn’t a future threat. It’s here. Now.

And still, we’re extracting fossil fuels to make more virgin plastic - 99% of it from oil and gas. But there are alternatives.

✅ Recycled plastic requires up to 88% less energy to produce compared to virgin plastic.
✅ It prevents plastic waste from entering landfills or nature.
✅ And it replaces high-emission materials like concrete and wood.

HAHN Plastics turns post-consumer waste into durable outdoor products that help reduce emissions and fight climate breakdown - without compromising on performance.

We can't cool the planet with empty gestures. But we can with smarter materials.

Can be filled with gravel or allow grass to grow through — supporting natural drain-age and biodiversity
Installed over compacted MOT, no concrete foundations needed

🔹 Heavy Duty Ground Grid
Handles extreme loads up to 650 tonnes
Designed for truck parks, service stations, site access roads, and heavy-duty industrial yards
Provides robust, long-term stability
Also laid over prepared MOT bases, supporting SuDS strategies and reducing surface runoff

🛡️ Fencing that Doesn’t Give Up 🛡️

We’ve all seen it - cracked, leaning, weathered fencing around a housing estate, school, or train station.
Good intentions at installation... but time, weather, and real life quickly take their toll.

At HAHN Plastics, we thought: "There must be a better way."

That’s why we created fencing solutions using hanit® recycled plastic, turning everyday waste into fencing that’s built to endure the toughest environments.

🏠 Picture a social housing development - busy with families, pets, bikes, and footballs.
🌊Or a canal-side barrier battling constant moisture and frost.
🏛 Or a secure MoD boundary that can’t afford regular maintenance disruption.

hanit® fencing doesn’t warp, splinter, rot, or give up.
✅ It's easy to install.
✅ It stays strong, year after year.
✅ It helps organisations meet their sustainability goals without sacrificing performance.

Foundation counts too.

A stable, correctly installed substrate, whether it's concrete, compacted stone, or specialist fixings ensures your fence stands tall for the long haul.

When we say durable, we mean it. 💪
Let’s build better, together. https://www.hahnplastics.com/Products/Fencing-and-Barriers

Nature Doesn’t Waste. Why Do We? 🌿

A forest drops millions of leaves every autumn. Every single one returns to the soil, feeding new life. 🌍

We drop 400 million tonnes of plastic a year. Most of it goes nowhere, except into oceans, landfills, or incinerators.

👉 Only 9% of all plastic ever made has been recycled.
👉 Over 11 million tonnes of plastic waste enter our oceans every year, equivalent to a truckload every minute. (Source: UNEP).

This isn’t nature’s doing. It’s ours.

At HAHN Plastics, we manufacture 100% recycled plastic products - durable, long-lasting, and made to fit the natural cycle, not disrupt it.

♻️ Zero rotting
♻️ No toxic coatings
♻️ Fully recyclable again.

Nature doesn't waste. Neither should we.

🌊 What Materials Work Best for Wet or Coastal Environments?🌊

Traditional materials like timber, concrete, and steel often struggle in wet, coastal, or riverside locations.

Timber rots and swells.
Concrete cracks under freeze-thaw cycles.
Steel rusts and corrodes.

For tough environments, you need tough, sustainable materials. hanit®, made from 100% recycled consumer plastics, is built for it:

✅ Completely resistant to moisture, salt, and chemicals
✅ Impervious to rot, insects, and frost
✅ UV-stable - no cracking or splintering in the sun
✅ Long design life - maintenance-free durability.

From canal towpaths and coastal walkways to riverside structures and retaining walls, hanit® thrives where other materials fail.

✅ Made from 100% recycled consumer plastic
✅ Maintenance-free - no rotting, splintering, or cracking
✅ Lightweight yet extremely durable
✅ Resistant to frost, moisture, insects, and UV rays

Cosmetics and Microplastics: A Hidden Polluter. 💄

Did you know that your skincare routine might be contributing to microplastic pollution?

Products like exfoliating scrubs, shampoos, and even toothpaste can contain tiny microplastics that end up in waterways, harming marine life.

Switching to biodegradable, plastic-free personal care products can help reduce this problem.
