Recyling plastic products through Replas

Posted on April 09, 2019

Defries recently purchased a Replas outdoor table and seating. Replas makes furniture from recycled plastic products including hospital SMS wrap & gowns from Defries Industries.

"We liked supporting Replas - to look at our outdoor seating and think it is the full life cycle of hospital medical products - made into furniture instead of ending up as land fill. It supports our commitment to recycling and sustainability" spoken by Caroline de Fries, Marketing Manger at DI

Please check out the Replas range of furniture at replas.com.au and their newsletter article about Defries Industries.
