Once more, Broxap has been able to secure a large deal with an educational learning centre. Aberdeen College wanted to encourage their students to recycle and develop a greener surrounding environment; and this inspired them to purchase from our SEPR8 range. It was a practical solution to providing the student with a clear colour-coded aperture system so that the correct recycling was taking place. We were only happy to oblige when the college wanted to customise their SEPR8 recycling units, having the name and logo engraved on the front panel.

Aberdeen ordered 12 of our Daventry internal recycling units, each with a 60 Litre capacity. The design brief from the collage was to ensure that the range of bins fit discreetly within the learning environment and our lightweight steel recycling unit does just that, allowing students to develop a natural recycling habit. 

Their recycling concern developed further, and the college decided to be more recycling active, purchasing our Battery Bespoke product. The Battery bins lockable opening with removable front door allows for easier emptying of the clear cylindrical plastic internal liner and there have been fitted internal guidelines for correct disposal. Normally there is a transparent door fixed; however Aberdeen specified they want the unit customised with their college logo, so we affixed a steel door with the design logo to cohere with their other purchased recycling products.

We also had an order placed for our Derby Slimline Steel litter bin, it is both a strong and durable product with 10 year structural guarantee, and so less expense for the college in the long-term. We also ensured that the bins were lockable, so waste is secure in the outdoor area, and protected from any potential vandalism. We also guided the college to choose the Derby Slimline as it is ideal for where footpath space is limited (i.e. where wheelchair access is required or there is heavy foot traffic, such as a college).

A final purchase we received was of our 169 Litre grit bins. Once more these are heavy duty products with a rigid outer structure which includes a strong “through-rod” hinge system which helps to combat any potential vandalism on the college’s site.

Broxap offer a customising system whereby the client can add their desired design to the bin and still have the high standard quality finish.
