CleanRiver Recycling Solutions, a division of Midpoint International Inc., based in Aurora, Ontario, has introduced patent-pending waste and recycling containers that the company says is easily configured and reconfigured to meet current and future waste stream requirements. The Transition 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. The 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,” Dave Jarrett, CleanRiver president, says.
The 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 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.
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 percent recycled content.
