100% Recycling vinyl record
The PVC granulate1 is produced by the shredding of production returns and surplus stock, and is free from paper residues and contaminants. For the ReVinyl Colour Selection, we sort the returns into four defined colour categories: Yellow, Red, Blue and Green.
- Vinyl record is made from 100% recycled PVC1
- Proven acoustic and visual quality comparable to that of a coloured vinyl record
- 100% electricity from renewable sources during pressing2; steam is generated using conventional methods
- Approx. 63% lower product carbon footprint compared to conventional pressing3
- Reuse of regrind¹ instead of additional virgin PVC
- Recyclable and reusable within the company’s internal material cycle
It´s getting colourful
Black or Coloured ReVinyl? The choice is yours! The special feature: Just like Coloured ReVinyl, each of the four colour variants in the ReVinyl Colour Selection is unique and – depending on the composition – has a marbled effect.
- Black ReVinyl
- Coloured ReVinyl with random colour composition with a marbled effect (every vinyl record is one of a kind)
- ReVinyl Colour Selection: 4 pre-sorted colour variants with a marbled effect (every vinyl record is one of a kind)
The CO₂ savings stated are based on a report on global average values for PVC records. The production of ReVinyl at optimal media results in a 63% reduction in CO₂ compared to the global average.
