Modern handling, design and safety pressures
have demanded a new style of textile bank for the 21st century.Ergonomically
designed for the modern world of recycling, our innovative
new textile bank is the answer.
The problem...
The old style of textile bank has been around for almost 15
years and the design has not changed much. Indeed, much of
the hardware to be found on our local recycling sites and
supermarket car parks are re-painted and repaired versions
of this original equipment.
- 15 year old box shape design
- Metal construction is rusty and heavy
- Door at the front invites pilfering
- Hinged deposit shute has moving parts
that cause trap hazards and injuries
- Emptying operation is by hand, time
consuming and costly
- Risk assessment for operation is poor.
The answer...
Ergonomically designed, our new bank is made from recycled
ldpe plastic (made from old plastic bottles). The average
amount of textiles that can be collected per bank per week
is about 200 kgs.
The old bank takes about half an hour to be emptied by hand
into a sack and then put onto the lorry. The new bank can
be emptied in 4 minutes with the innovative opening base and
crane system.
