Designers of designer street furniture since 1986, we have initiated a voluntary CSR policy to improve our manufacturing processes. The design of outdoor public litter garbage cans is fully in line with this approach: discover the benefits of equipping your city with litter garbage cans and functional sorting areas perfectly integrated into the space.
Public outdoor waste garbage cans: practical and elegant with Polymobyl
Why install litter garbage cans in public spaces?
The first advantage of a litter garbage can is the increased cleanliness it brings. Citizens are more inclined to dispose of their garbage if there’s a garbage can nearby.
The selective sorting garbage can takes things a step further, encouraging users to separate glass, packaging and food waste, for example. This creates a virtuous circle that gets people used to sorting their garbage, both in town and at home.
Another advantage of installing public litter garbage cans is that they facilitate the work of municipal waste collection services. The same applies to businesses, government offices and, more generally, all communal areas.
To take its environmental and social approach even further, Polymobyl is committed to an ambitious CSR policy. In particular, we have subjected some of our products to an analysis by Eco Impact, an independent organization validated by ADEME (the French Environment and Energy Management Agency). This service provider is responsible for measuring the social and environmental impact of our products, using a score that takes into account the product’s lifecycle, as well as its commitment to quality of life in the workplace.
What are the three types of recycling garbage cans?
Waste management nowadays differentiates the treatment of garbage according to its composition. Our sorting garbage cans take this into account, with clearly identified compartments for glass, packaging, paper and household waste.
Depending on where it is installed, the litter bin can take on different shapes and designs, with a lid or a tilting bin…
How can you personalize your litter garbage cans?
Each litter bin can be configured to blend in with the background or display an engaging message. A choice of colors to match your corporate identity, laser-cutting or engraving options personalize the garbage can with the logo or name of the local authority or company concerned.
The Polymobyl street furniture catalog includes a dozen models dedicated to keeping public spaces clean:
- Recycling garbage cans ;
- Floor-standing cylindrical garbage cans ;
- Litter garbage cans with swivel bin ;
- Vigipirate security garbage cans ;
- Ashtrays ;
- Cleaning shed.
Why call on Polymobyl to design litter garbage cans?
Our ranges are produced in France, without subcontracting, which limits transport requirements and therefore the environmental impact of our activity. At every stage in the design and manufacture of our street furniture, we are committed to an eco-responsible approach that takes into account the product’s entire life cycle.
To objectively measure the ecological and social impact of our processes, we called on Eco Impact. From the choice of raw materials, through the impact of packaging and use, to the mode of transport and reparability rates, multiple criteria were impartially assessed. Our LUD litter garbage can achieved an overall Eco Impact score of A, with an A environmental label and a B social rating.
This label rewards our efforts in the following areas:
- Sourcing of raw materials (France and Europe) ;
- Optimizing distribution-related transport ;
- Repairability, recyclability and possible recovery of products at end-of-life.
- Reuse offcuts whenever possible
