A COMPANY offering a sustainable driveway solution has arrived in South Somerset.
Oltco, which was founded in 2004, has just launched in Yeovil, as well as Weymouth in Dorset, to deliver its premium resin bound driveway product to customers in the surrounding areas - under the leadership of experienced businessman Rowan Rachman.
Oltco's innovative Recycle Bound product is the world’s first recycled driveway solution, which helps to combat the global issue of plastic waste.
Made utilising waste plastic that is already in circulation (straws, plastic drink bottles and plastic food packaging) from a plastic recycling point, each square metre of Recycle Bound consists of the equivalent of 3,000 plastic straws.
Since the launch of Recycle Bound in January 2019, Oltco has used the equivalent of more than 40 million plastic straws in driveways, paths and patios across the UK.
From residential driveways and gardens through to hotel balconies and restaurant car parks, Oltco Weymouth & Yeovil will look to establish itself as the go-to resin bound installers in the area.
Rachman said: “I enjoy connecting with new people and running Oltco Weymouth & Yeovil provides me with the perfect opportunity to do this, as I will be travelling across Weymouth, Yeovil and the surrounding areas creating fantastic transformations for my customers.
“Oltco provided me with the freedom to create my own schedule and build my own team, and I’m looking forward to running a successful business while also making time for myself and my family.”
Tom Stringer, Co-Director at Oltco, comments: “Rowan emanates positive energy - we love being in his company and we are confident all of his customers will too.
"Rowan will go above and beyond to ensure that his customers are left with smiles on their faces and that’s exactly the kind of person we look for in our network.
"His knowledge on the construction industry is impressive and this, combined with his fantastic customer service, is what truly won us over.”
