About Eurocell

eurocell.co.uk

One of the youngest yet most dynamic PLCs listed on the London Stock Exchange (LSE), Eurocell is the UK's leading manufacturer, recycler and distributor of PVC-U profiles and a pioneer of energy-efficient, sustainable design and practice. We were the first PVC-U fenestration extrusion company to float on the main market of LSE, and there are two burgeoning main divisions in the company: Eurocell Profiles and Eurocell Building Plastics.

Eurocell Profiles designs and manufactures all PVC-U window, door and roofing products, which are then supplied directly to trade fabricators, who then sell on to builders and retail installers. The business also owns the Cavalok brand of cavity closer systems and, since flotation, has acquired Vista Panels, a major manufacturer of composite doors and PVC-U entrance doors. This growth is set to continue apace, and there has never been a more exciting time to be associated with our vibrant company.

The company is committed to sustainable PVC-U building product design and technology so its products not only meet the highest technical standards but also incorporate responsible use of materials. The group has the largest PVC-U recycling plant in the UK, which processes up to 3 million window frames a year. This cuts both material going to landfill and the consumption of virgin PVC-U.

Eurocell Building Plastics is the distribution arm of the company, and one of the fastest growing trade counter operations in the UK today. Operating from more than 200 branches nationwide our depots offer more than 10,000 PVC-U roofline and ancillary building products and staffed with experienced, well-trained, customer-centric employees. Any stock item can be delivered free to any UK site within 24 hours. This division also owns the premium-quality Deeplas brand of PVC-U roofline products.
