The Future Is Safe In Our Hands
Highly recyclable and energy efficient, windows and doors by Deceuninck are making the UK’s homes warmer and more sustainable.
Altogether greener windows and doors
We’re committed to being part of the solution to climate change, making UK homes warmer and more energy efficient by developing products which perform better through-life, that are made more sustainably, and which are easier to recycle at the end of life. It’s about the circular economy.
Measurable and clear targets – not greenwash
We’ve signed up to Science Based Targets, the corporate climate action programme. It’s important because it means that we’ve made a commitment to meaningful change in the way that we work and to measure what we’re doing.
It’s evidence-led, based on the latest climate science, and what we need to do together, to meet the goals of the Paris Climate Change Agreement.
Our journey to net zero
We’re working hard to be more sustainable. This starts with the commitment that we’ve made to Science Based Targets.
Our baseline is the carbon we created in 2021. The total figure for all of our global activities was 552,000 tCO2.
From this starting point, we made the following commitments in summer 2022:
Cut Emissions
To cut CO2 emissions from our operations (Scope 1&2 emissions) by 60% by 2030
Lower Emissions
To lower emissions from our supply chain (Scope 3) by 48% per tonne by 2030
Achieve Nat-Zero
Achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050

The leader in PVC-U recycling
While we’re doing lots of different things to lower our carbon emissions, including sourcing renewable energy and investing in solar, our state-of-the-art recycling facility plays a massive part in what we’re doing.
Opened in 2017, we can reprocess up to 45,000 tonnes of post-consumer and post-manufacturing PVC-U per year. That’s the potential to stop more than three million old windowsand doors going to landfill annually.
It also delivers big CO2 savings. Using recycled PVC-U in windows and doors delivers a 90,000 tonne CO2 saving compared to virgin feedstocks. It also lowers energy usage by 90%.
