Welcome, we are the

Forest Recycling Project.

We are very sorry to let you know that due to the current restrictions, we are now closed to the public until further notice (likely mid-February 2021.)

Please note that we are not selling paint or fabrics at present (and we never accept paint donations from members of the public.) If you are interested in ordering scaffolding boards for click&collect, please email scaff@frpuk.org

For more information, please follow us on social media (Facebook, Instagram, Twitter) and subscribe to our newsletter to stay in touch.

If you have any questions, email us at info@frpuk.org

Stay safe and healthy!

Best wishes,

the FRP Team

Reclaimed Materials

Paint

Of the 320 million litres of paint sold in the UK each year an estimated 50 million litres – enough to fill 20 Olympic-sized swimming pools – goes to waste. Reclaimed paint is both an environmentally friendly and cost effective way to decorate and truly has the ability to transform your space.

Reclaimed Materials

Scaffolding Wood

We reclaim used scaffolding boards, as well as other wood from the building industry. Old boards become planters in greening projects and tables and shelving in peoples’ homes and businesses. Used floorboards are made into biodiversity boxes, providing much needed space for animals to nest.

Fabric

One of the biggest negative environmental impacts comes from fabrics. FRP has recently started reclaiming fabric as part of our mission is to protect the environment and divert surplus material away from landfill and use it to inspire social change.
