Dams use ABS edging around our desks as opposed to Poly Vinyl Chloride (PVC), ABS is recyclable, reusable, non-toxic & non-carcinogenic.
PVC cannot be effectively recycled due to the many different toxic additives used to soften or stabilize.
Most consumers do not know that a 3 in the recycle symbol indicates that the plastic is made of PVC, and therefore recycle those products, inadvertently rendering thousands of potentially recycled containers useless. In fact just one PVC bottle can contaminate a recycling load of 100,000 PET bottles.
