Operations
Description or Purpose | What better way to promote Cans and Bottles Recycling than to complement your existing Landfill bin with a bright, over-size drink can, which is sure to attract attention! The Recycling Can was initially designed as an eye-catching installation as part of the 10c Container Deposit Schemes, aimed to improve community awareness and recycling rates. Installed in busy public areas, it is also great way for community groups to collect cans and bottles as part of their fundraising programs. Following the popularity and success of the Recycling Can, a standard recycling option is also available. |
Operating Principles | Establishing an effective public place recycling program can be challenging. Success is dependent on clearly visible waste options, which immediately educate the user about each recycling stream being collected. This Recycling Can demands attention, with the effective graphics which are designed by industry experts in Australian Standard waste colours. On closer inspection the compelling Australian recycling facts about single use containers further encourage recycling. Internally, the Recycling Can features a fully sealed base which minimises the risk of any spills, an important consideration in public places. An internal liner holder hides an 80 Litre Compost-A-Pak® liner, which is completely plastic free and Australian Certified Compostable. Convenient to use, the lid simply lifts off for cleaning or access, and the liner can then be completely removed with the collected cans and bottles. After transportation, the liner can be thrown in with food waste for composting, limiting the use of additional plastic bags, which makes this unit even more sustainable. |
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
