FRÄNKISCHE has launched the new profi-air classic carbo-line from, the latest addition to the company’s established profi-air system for mechanical ventilation heat recovery ventilation (MVHR).
The ducts are the channels that allow the MVHR ventilation system to distribute and extract air throughout the building.
The outer surface of the new ventilation pipes is manufactured from a PE-based material made using recycled bottle caps. To meet EU post-consumer recyclate (PCR) standards, the material is produced using 100% recycled consumer waste, with no production waste included.
Matt Densham, Divisional Director – Building Services for FRÄNKISCHE UK, commented: “This product is a welcome addition to our product portfolio and, compared to the profi-air classic grey pipes made of PE virgin materials, it provides CO2 savings of up to 59% per running metre. Utilising sustainable materials doesn’t have to result in higher production costs. Companies using a recycled solution can often enjoy a competitive edge versus those using a virgin material.
“The profi-air classic carbo-line is genuinely odourless despite the PCR content and is EPD-certified. This certification authenticates the CO2 savings and confirms the new ventilation pipes are eco-balanced components with Type III ecolabel.”
The product offers the same technical parameters and benefits as the profi-air classic grey pipe, delivering high performance alongside hygienic quality and functionality.
Matt added: “The profi-air classic carbo-line semi-rigid duct is designed specifically for ventilation installations and ticks all the right boxes from its eco-friendly credentials through to a high-performance specification, which is backed-up by the all-important EPD accreditation.” To learn more about the range, please visit: https://www.fraenkische.com/en/profi-air-classic-carbo-line
