Product Release: CleanRiver Configurable Recycling Containers
AURORA, Ontario -- CleanRiver™ Recycling Solutions, a division of Midpoint International, Inc., has introduced patent-pending waste and recycling containers that are easily configured and reconfigured to meet current and future waste stream requirements. Transition™ Series TPM Configurable Recycling and Waste Containers can be modified onsite with interchangeable opening plates and movable internal dividers to handle up to four separate types of waste and recyclables in a single unit. These units include 4-color posters and labels that enhance public awareness and improve recycling effectiveness.
Transition™ TPM containers are designed so businesses, institutions and government agencies may implement recycling programs at their own pace and can easily and cost effectively adjust to inevitable changes. “The name Transition is significant because the same container can be used at all stages – from a first step collecting trash or bottles and cans to a full multi-stream recycling and composting program,” said CleanRiver President Dave Jarrett.
Lightweight and portable, Transition TPM Series Recycling and Waste Containers are ideal for cafeterias, banquet halls, dorms, special events, parking garages and other high-traffic areas.
In addition to being stand-alone recycling bins, TPM Series containers have the unique ability to seamlessly and cost-effectively transition into more aesthetically pleasing Transition™ TRH Series recycling stations. The TPM container fits inside the TRH station cabinet and becomes a configurable rigid liner. In addition, the opening plates used with the TPM Series also work with Transition stations.
“Many of our customers identify keeping up with changing waste stream requirements as a significant sustainability challenge. They need to be able to quickly and easily adapt to these changes in order to maximize the return on their recycling investment,” Jarrett added.
Transition TPM Series Recycling and Waste Containers are available in 22-, 36- and 51-gallon sizes. They are molded from low-density polyethylene (LDPE) made from up to 98% recycled content, so the container itself is completely recyclable at the end of its useful life.
