Manufacture of other builders' carpentry and joinery
Joinery manufacturers of doors, windows, and staircases use protective cardboard, foam corners, polythene wrapping, and pallet materials. Delivered joinery products often arrive wrapped in protective packaging that the installer removes on site. EPR obligations cover all these materials, and the large format of many joinery items means packaging volumes are significant per unit.
