Recycling scheme builds
Crown Paints flagship Kick Out The Can recycling scheme is celebrating its most successful year yet.
This year saw more than double the number of containers of surplus paint brought into Crown Decorating Centres across the UK, ready to be recycled .
The final total amounted to an 20,000 cans of unwanted paint being returned to the network of 135 stores during the innovative scheme’s three-week campaign.
All paint brought into the stores has now been reprocessed by social enterprise company Nimtech, based at Crown’s Darwen headquarters, ready to be distributed to community projects across the UK.
Beneficiaries include Princes Trust projects, youth skills training enterprises and small not-for-profit schemes in the communities where Crown Decorating Centres are based.
It’s not just the paint that is reconstituted – both metal and plastic containers are also recycled.
