Manual PET compaction at the place of collection with Collect & Compact

Single, empty, disposable PET bottles. It doesn’t matter whether the bottles fed are opened or closed. Up to a bottle diameter of 9 cm and a length of 35 cm (this corresponds in most cases to a 2.5l bottle) Collect & Compact will press each bottle.
Tetra Paks.

Collect & Compact can be set up practically everywhere:

At public collection points such as motorway service stations, stadiums, airports, railway stations, roads and beaches.
At the waste collection point of apartment buildings.
Mobile on trailers.

Manual PET compaction is very easy. Thanks to the innovative pressing technology from TESWIC, compression of a bottle takes only little strenght. One just has to be tall enough to reach the lever of the press.

There is no power connection required. The operator compacts the bottles individually by.
Collect & Compact is ideally suited for outdoor use as it is made of high-quality stainless steel.
A flat surface of approx. 2 m² is required.

Collect & Compact is a decentralised collection system. It can be set up practically anywhere. People can dispose properly of their PET bottles even at places that do not offer shelter or electricity.
Experience shows that the collection rates increase when people have more possibilities to dispose of their bottles in a proper way.
The separate collection of PET bottles allows recycling in a targeted manner.
By compressing the bottles, everybody contributes to an improvement in logistics. The collection vehicle transports PET instead of air. Not to forget the decrease in collection drives.
Everybody can make his contribution to recycling and CO² reduction.

Collect & Compact can be set up flexibly, as neither electricity nor a shelter is required. It allows a decentralised collection which is known to increase the collection quota.
By compressing bottles during insertion, emptying intervals of the container are extended. In ideal circumstances they are doubled.
Collect & Compact perforates every single bottle. A refuse collection vehicle which is equipped with a compactor can compress the collected bottles even further and thus increase its loading capacity. The profitability of transports is improved.
The perforated bottles can be fed directly into a channel baling press. The production step of perforation is not applicable.
Manual PET compaction contributes to meeting EU requirements.

Due to the special design of the housing, it can be easily adapted to local waste container sizes.
Alternatively, a plastic bag can be hung into the housing.
The door of the housing is equipped with a security lock.

Made of high-quality stainless steel, both the press and the housing can be cleaned with a high-pressure cleaner.
Due to the special press technology, small volumes of residual liquid usually remain in the bottle. Only larger volumes drip down into the collection container.
