Operations

Description or Purpose The E-Waste Bin has been designed as a corporate solution to both consolidate the collection of common E-Waste items, and importantly, educate users about what should be recycled.

E-Waste is Australia’s fastest growing waste segment with a comparably low recycling rate. This is alarming considering the risk of E-Waste when buried in landfill, and the fact that over 90% of many E-Waste products can be recycled.

Often customised by our industry experts in partnership with customers, this E-Waste Bin is both an effective educational statement and collection solution to address the growing challenge of E-Waste in corporate spaces and communities.
Operating Principles The E-Waste Bin is an attractive modern cabinet, which can be customised to your waste stream requirements and educational program.

The unit features an Acrylic top plate, which incorporates best practice waste diversion features. Full colour graphics printed around the differentiated apertures provide images of common E-Waste items, which not only make sure it’s easy to correctly separate items, but also ensure users are educated about what else can be recycled.

Each aperture drops into its own internal collection unit. There are a number of top plate options available for different E-Waste stream combinations including Batteries, Keyboards, Cords & Mouses, Printer Cartridges, VHS Tapes, Discs, Bulbs and Mobiles Phones.

The base cabinetry is manufactured in Polytec Commercial Melamine. There is a standard choice between the modern ‘Graphite’, the classic ‘Soft Walnut’ or the textured ‘Black Wenge’, or alternatively the base cabinetry can be chosen to complement your specific space. The base cabinetry can also be customised to include full colour Vinyl Signs, which can be added to the door panels and side panels to further promote your sustainability program.
Additional Information The unit can be customised to meet your needs. Simply call one of our Waste Diversion Experts to learn more on 0249 537 644.

Approvals Related to Use of Output

Important Note on Composting in NSW

In NSW, applying waste to land – including a processed waste such as compost - or using it as a fuel may trigger various regulatory requirements. Depending on the proposed use you may be required to comply with a Resource Recovery Exemption or need to hold an environment protection licence, and pay the waste levy.

While there is a Compost Exemption (2014) it is important to note that drying or dehydrating food waste, or any other compostable waste, is specifically excluded from consideration under this exemption. Drying or dehydrating equipment uses externally supplied energy to heat and ventilate food waste or any other compostable waste in order to rapidly dry the waste material over a short time period (typically 24 to 48 hours), either with or without the addition of an inoculum. If you are interested in this type of equipment you should refer to the resource recovery exemptions for information on lawful use of outputs.

If it is intended to use the material as a fuel, it must comply with the NSW Energy from Waste Policy Statement. http://www.epa.nsw.gov.au/waste/140056enfromwasteps.htm
