FSC® wood handles for paint tools

Just as we depend on forests, forests also depend on us. The Forest Stewardship Council® (FSC®) brings together individuals, businesses, governments and NGOs under a common goal: to protect healthy and resilient forests for everyone, for ever.

FSC® is a not-for-profit organisation that provides reliable solutions to help safeguard the world’s forests and tackle today’s challenges relating to deforestation, climate change and biodiversity. At Nespoli Group, we mainly use FSC®-certified timber sourced from sustainably managed forests, through the application of a rigorous Chain of Custody (COC), in the production of our wooden brushes and tools.

PROCYCLEN – Blauer Engel

Since years we sell paint accessories that are made of an innovative plastic called Procyclen®. This plastic granulate is produced by Interseroh and is made of recycled domestic waste. A special recycling process makes it possible to obtain this high-quality material, which can be used for new plastic products.

The use of Procyclen® results in saving of precious resources and reduction in greenhouse gas emissions for up to 50% when compared to production with of the virgin plastic.

Our engineers worked together with the experts of Interseroh in order to make this special granulated plastic suitable for painting tools.  Since January 2015, Nespoli is producing painting tools and household accessories from this environmentally friendly plastic. The paint trays and grids made from Procyclen are marked with the "Blue Angel" logo.
