OUR SERVICES
Don’t throw away your old, rusty and end of life Trolleys, – give them the Trollex process which fully refurbishes to ‘as new’ standard, and drives massive savings against new replacements which also significantly reduces your carbon footprint.
What is The Trollex Process?
Trollex recycle old Trolleys into ‘as new’ condition, – removing high replacement costs, and reducing your Carbon footprint.
Increased trolley lifespan
In various and continuous testing, the Trollex re-zinc process has shown to be on average, 20% thicker in application, strength and durability than many new manufactured units, thus improving lifespan and increasing protection against the severe and changeable UK weather conditions.
Lower replacement costs
The Trollex Trolley process greatly reduces the overall carbon footprint against brand new manufacturing processes. It is more crucial now to recycle and reuse as much current asset equipment as possible, not only to save replacement costs, but to reduce the level of pollution from new manufacturing across the planet.
Reduced carbon emmisions
On average, 1.9 tonnes of CO2 are emitted for every tonne of steel produced. To date, the TMS Trollex Process has saved 7,125 Tonnes of C02 from polluting the World’s atmosphere. Together with Trollex, you can recycle and reuse your old trolley fleet, save money and help reduce the level of carbon emitted in new manufacture.
The Trollex refurbishment process
We have been refurbishing Supermarket Trolleys since the 1990’s, and in 2013 we commissioned and invested in the most efficient Pyrolysis burn-off oven designed specifically for Supermarket Trolleys. This oven forms an integral part of the Trollex refurbishment process.
So how does the process work?
Trolleys are identified / nominated for process and scheduled.
Trolleys are transported to the process depot.
All components and accessories removed
Trolleys are placed into our oven to remove all existing lacquer/ zinc plating
Trolleys are then electro-zinc plated (to inhibit rust)
Trolleys are then applied with a clear passivate lacquer (to protect the zinc).
Units are then rebuilt with all new/used components and accessories, completed trolleys now ready for service.
