Earth First Solutions Ltd., (formerly Re- Plastics Ltd.), was founded in 2001 in response to the need for an eco-friendly alternative to pressure treated wood used for a specific application in the underground waterworks industry in Calgary, Canada. Upon receipt of the initial approval by Calgary Waterworks in 2001, the company received approval by Epcor Water Services in Edmonton, AB for the same product in 2003. Seeing the structural and environmental advantages that the recycled plastic product offered over the wood traditionally used, many of the surrounding municipalities in Central and Southern Alberta also adopted the product for use in their building specifications.
In conjunction with the original approval by Calgary Waterworks in 2001, the company quickly became the distributor of a line of recycled plastic lumber materials that included dimensional plastic lumber, parking curbs and fence posts. The company also began to use the recycled materials in other applications such as park benches, picnic tables and waste / recycling receptacles. Our products can be found throughout Western Canada in residential yards, municipal parks, farm / agricultural lots and commercial sites such as golf courses, curling rinks and boat docks. |
