ROCTEX Textured Wall Panels Environmental Statement

At ROCTEX we are conscious of the need to care for our environment. When we were developing ROCTEX wall panels we evaluated many factors to ensure our product would have minimal environmental impact.
ROCTEX wall panels and tiles are:

  • Made from ecologically-safe materials
  • Non-polluting
  • Non-petroleum based
  • Handcrafted and air dried for minimal energy embodiment

Raw Materials

The ingredients of ROCTEX are 99% derived from naturally formed substances.

  • Raw materials are sourced from companies that promote energy efficiency and environmental sustainability practices.
  • Packaging for raw materials is 100% recyclable and is dually disposed of for recycling to occur.
  • Raw materials are ordered in larger economically packaged quantities to reduce packaging and freight.
  • No hazardous materials are involved in the manufacture of ROCTEX.

Manufacturing Process

The ROCTEX manufacturing process is designed to minimise waste.

  • All ingredients are measured and mixed precisely to produce the desired amount of product.
  • Moulds and pouring devices are designed to eliminate spillage.
  • Water used for cleaning mixing containers, tools and moulds is recycled. First rinses are done in pre-used water and final rinses in clean water. When water has reached saturation it is collected by an accredited waste recycling company.
  • No Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) or odour emissions are created in the production of ROCTEX.
  • Glass reinforcement is not catalysed.
  • ROCTEX panels and tiles are sized to minimise cutting and associated air-borne particles. ROCTEX also offers a cutting service in a controlled environment where potential airborne particles are captured.
  • The panels are sized to minimise waste. Our in-house offcuts are used as marketing samples.
  • ROCTEX panels and tiles dry naturally indoors at room temperature; no energy is expended on heating or cooling.

End Product Use and Recycling

  • ROCTEX panels and tiles can be repainted. This feature enables a change to the aesthetics of the product that may prolong usage and thereby reduce waste.
  • ROCTEX panels and tiles are suitable for safe landfill disposal
