Marley gutters collect precious rainwater from roof surfaces and keep the house dry. To make good use of the water, it can be channelled via the downpipe into a
Marley rainwater tank and collected there. From there, it is used in the house for flushing the toilet or washing machine, or it is a valuable resource for watering the garden.
Marley gutters are made of PVC - this modern, high-performance plastic has
a particularly good ecological balance: the low crude oil content conserves limited resources and increases the cost-effectiveness of the material. Resistance to environmental influences, the
longevity of up to 50 years and the
recyclability characterise Marley guttering. PVC is physiologically flawless, there is no leaching and therefore no contamination of the water. For this reason, Marley plastic gutters are particularly suitable for collecting and utilising rainwater.
Marley gutter systems are mature professional solutions - high quality, durable, easy to install.
They are designed for DIY enthusiasts and are securely glued or simply plugged in.
In addition, they offer many other advantages:
- PVC gutters have a favourable environmental footprint compared to metal gutters. Less energy and raw material consumption, because 57% of PVC is made from rock salt, the oil-dependent part is only approx. 43% - this corresponds to only 0.1% of the annual oil consumption in Germany*.
- Even better: some of Marley's raw materials are obtained from recycled materials from its own production. 99% of the resulting production waste is processed into granulate and returned to production.
- PVC has a smooth surface on which no deposits build up even after years of use: Thanks to low frictional resistance, Marley gutters channel water quickly and safely.
- Do-it-yourself saves money: plastic guttering is the low-cost alternative to metal guttering in many respects.
- Marley plastic guttering is extremely resilient.
- The impact-resistant, temperature and light-stable plastic is durable and dimensionally stable.
- High resistance to weathering and environmental influences, UV-stable.
