UBQ\u2019s unique waste-to-materials approach enables a rapid pathway to meet these goals, offering broad and measurable climate impact,\u201d said <strong>Mike Boswell, Managing Director of Plastribution<\/strong>. \u201cThe variety of UBQ\u2019s product range offers the unique combination of performance, sustainability benefit and cost effectiveness, demonstrating the company\u2019s commitment to addressing customer needs. We are confident that our customers across the UK and Ireland will recognize these benefits and embrace the sustainable material transformation as a vehicle for achieving their goals.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>The partnership will further fortify Plastribution\u2019s sustainable materials offering. The renowned distributor will have access to UBQ\u2019s entire product portfolio, which incorporates a range of carefully engineered products, tailored to meet companies\u2019 sustainability goals related to fossil-based plastic replacement, waste diversion, increased post-consumer recycled content and emissions removal and avoidance. Integrating as little as 5% of a UBQ material replacement or additive can make a measurable difference in achieving each of these goals. All materials offered to Plastribution\u2019s client base will be produced in UBQ\u2019s new industrial-scale facility in Bergen Op-Zoom, Netherlands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cThrough our years working with Plastribution, we have recognized the company\u2019s focus on promoting sustainable material usage, making them an ideal partner for us.
