Operations
| Description or Purpose | The Pedal Bins are a great commercial bin, providing a hands-free solution for separating recyclables from landfill. The high quality commercial-grade units are available for all common waste streams in Australian Standard colours, with educational recycling labels. The system is HACCP compliant, and has proven particularly successful in areas in which WHS and cleanliness is paramount, such as commercial kitchens, hospitals and childcare centres. The system is available in a range of colours in three sizes, 30 Litre, 45 Litre and 70 Litre. |
| Operating Principles | Incorporating a range of best practice features, the lids are manufactured in Australian Standard waste colours, with labels incorporating both text and graphics to clearly identify each waste stream. This ensures it is easy to recycle correctly with limited training. The Pedal Bins are easy to open using the heavy-duty foot pedal, which utilises an external mechanism with a single back spine to lift the lid vertically. This unique all plastic construction provides a much more durable solution, compared to internal step-on mechanisms. It also ensures the unit is rust, peel and chip resistant, and the resulting internal rounded corners and smooth contours are also easy to clean and disinfect. When the pedal is released, the tight-fitting overlapping lid snaps back quietly to provide a seal which helps minimise odours. The base is available in three sizes providing you with the flexibility to suit a range of spaces and waste capacity requirements. |
| 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
