Recycled picnic tables for Scottish canal

British Waterways has taken delivery from Oban-based Fusion Marine of picnic tables made from environmentally friendly recycled plastic for use along the banks of the Caledonian Canal in the north of Scotland.

In the last year, British Waterways has taken delivery of 20 of the tables to be used as a vital amenity resource for walkers and sailors.

Many of them have been installed at Dochgarroch just south of Inverness to replace existing wooden ones that have become damaged or worn out.

According to Mike Lofts, operations supervisor (east district) for the Caledonian Canal, recycled plastic has proved an ideal choice.

"The picnic tables are very tough and long lasting and the lack of maintenance required is a major attraction, along with the fact that they are made from recycled materials," he says.

In addition to the picnic tables, Fusion Marine manufactures a wide range of bespoke recycled plastic walkways, fences, bridges, waymarking posts, outdoor furniture and similar products that can be used by the agricultural industry, parks, nature reserves and for other recreational uses.

The range offered can also be used in the marine environment, including mooring pontoons and jetties.

All the products are available in a range of colours and can be manufactured and supplied to meet customer requirements.

Recycled plastic is - says the company - extremely versatile and offers a number of advantages over outdoor equipment made from traditional materials.

It is economic, aesthetically and environmentally sound, tough and durable. Outdoor products made from the material are rot-proof and maintenance free, which means no painting is required.
