Blindspades and the environment
At Blindspades we continuously work on new solutions that make the industry cleaner and more environmentally conscious. Our team is proud of the unique and creative solutions we have developed to make spade usage more sustainable. In doing so, we reduce raw material consumption and minimize both your and our waste streams.
Flange Management
With the Flange Management program, we refurbish used blindspades so they can be reused. After operations, flanges are often stored, as shown in the image beside. They are then forgotten and ultimately not used again. With the Flange Management program, Blindspades collects, reconditions, and manages your flanges for you.
Flange Management and the environment
By collecting used spades, reconditioning them, and storing them in a controlled manner, we prevent unnecessary production of new blindspades. This reduces the use of raw materials such as gas and steel. It also limits unnecessary labor and transport.
RentFlange™
Renting blindspades is made possible thanks to Rentflange™. All our standard flanges are available for rental. Up to 12” on the TA pallet, and larger sizes individually from DN 300 (DIN) or 12” (ANSI).
Rentflange™ and the environment
With Rentflange™, we ensure that spades are used more frequently. A rented spade is used on average 5 times. Research shows that a purchased spade is used only 1.4 times on average. By renting spades, we save up to 300% in raw material usage!
Flange packaging
Blindspades are robust products and can withstand rough handling. Therefore, the packaging does not need to be highly specific. To reduce packaging materials, Blindspades often delivers your spades in previously used packaging.
Flange packaging and the environment
By reusing packaging once, we save approximately 50% in raw material consumption.
Working together towards a cleaner industry
We trust that you appreciate our commitment and environmental efforts. We hope this will inspire you to take a simple approach to making things more environmentally friendly and cleaner in your daily practice as well!
