Our range includes heavy duty rubble sacks, asbestos waste sacks, temporary protective sheeting, damp proof membranes and reusable waste sacks, providing dependable solutions for waste containment, material handling and surface protection.

Developed with an emphasis on strength, reliability and suitability for demanding working environments, our products support contractors, construction companies, facilities management providers and specialist waste operators in maintaining efficient site operations. With a choice of specifications and applications, we help customers select appropriate products for their individual project requirements.

Heavy Duty Rubble Sacks

Our rubble sacks are designed for demanding construction and site clearance applications, providing reliable containment for materials such as rubble, bricks, stones, hardcore and general building debris.

Manufactured to withstand the handling requirements associated with construction waste, the sacks offer a practical solution for collecting, transporting and disposing of suitable site materials. Their durable construction helps reduce the risk of tearing or splitting during normal use, supporting efficient waste handling across building, renovation and demolition projects.

Available for a range of construction applications, our rubble sacks help contractors maintain organised working environments while managing the collection and removal of building waste. Product selection should take account of the weight, shape and characteristics of the materials being handled to ensure the appropriate sack specification is used.

Asbestos Waste Sacks

Cromwell Polythene supplies specialist asbestos waste sacks designed to support the secure containment and handling of asbestos waste during removal and disposal operations.

Our range includes two complementary UN certified sacks, intended for use together as part of an appropriate double bagging procedure.

Red Inner Asbestos Sacks

The red inner sacks are supplied with asbestos hazard identification and are designed to provide the primary containment of asbestos waste. The range includes a UN 3325 certified option, with relevant markings to support identification and handling during asbestos removal operations.

Clear Outer Asbestos Sacks

Our clear outer sacks are designed to contain the sealed red inner sack, providing an additional layer of containment during handling and transportation. The range includes a UN 3323 certified option, allowing the inner sack and its identification markings to remain visible where appropriate.

Both products are supplied separately in boxes of 100, enabling specialist contractors and waste management providers to maintain suitable stock levels for asbestos removal activities.

When double bagging is required, asbestos waste is placed into the appropriately labelled red inner sack, which is securely sealed before being placed inside the clear outer sack. The outer sack is then sealed separately to provide an additional containment layer.

The correct packaging, labelling and transport arrangements must be determined by the asbestos waste classification, applicable regulations and the requirements of the authorised waste carrier or receiving facility.

Temporary Protective Sheeting

Our Temporary Protective Sheeting (TPS) provides a practical solution for protecting surfaces and work areas during construction, maintenance, decorating and refurbishment activities.

Designed to help shield flooring, fixtures, fittings and other surfaces from dust, debris, paint splashes and general site contamination, the sheeting supports cleaner and more organised working environments throughout a project.

Suitable for a variety of temporary protection applications, TPS can be used by contractors, decorators, maintenance teams and facilities management providers seeking a convenient way to protect existing surfaces while work is undertaken.
