Making a stand in socially conscious loudspeaker manufacture, UK-based Reclaim Audio has announced its new website, highlighting the thinking behind the company and inviting the world to meet its product range.
‘The website explains Reclaim Audio’s two-pronged approach to creating environmentally friendly loudspeakers,’ the company says. ‘First, we have partnered with a string of talented craftspeople and responsible local businesses to ensure that every loudspeaker component comes from within a 200-mile radius of the factory. The Where Is Your Loudspeaker From? section on the website highlights the local businesses within a 200-mile radius, each contributing to the eco-friendly creation of the loudspeakers.
‘Second, where we can, we use materials that are destined for landfill, scrap or incineration. The loudspeaker housings are reclaimed wood from film and TV sets, museum exhibits, and live events, ensuring a new life for the wood as a loudspeaker cabinet. This process meets the highest audio standards while championing environmental responsibility. The bracketry that will attach the loudspeakers to the wall are made from offcuts destined for the scrapheap. The wadding we use inside our point source loudspeakers is also recycled, having formerly been exhibition carpets and even the packaging that they are sent out in is end of life fibres that have been turned into compostable packing material as they can’t be recycled any more.’
The new site also features a dedicated product page for each of the three point source loudspeakers that the company has launched with – the double 5-inch full-range RA215, a single 8-inch full-range RA108 and single 12-inch RA112S sub for low frequency extension as well as the GreenWaves GW4K solar powered amplifier. There is also a section to keep up to date with the latest news and thoughts from Reclaim Audio.
‘Our new website encapsulates our commitment to sonic excellence intertwined with social responsibility,’ says Reclaim Audio founder, Andrew Bishop. ‘We invite you to join us on this journey, dig into the stories behind our loudspeakers, and be part of a community that cherishes sustainability without cutting corners on sound quality.’
