Planet Earth Cleaning and Recycling, and Facility Management are delighted to offer 30 people the opportunity to each win a colour-coded Ecobin system for their facility, complete with recycling posters.

Comprising up to four separate, colour-coded bins for paper, mixed recycling, landfill and organic, Ecobin waste stations assist in cutting business waste bills by eliminating landfill. Attractive by design with foolproof colour coding, they prove popular with staff, and quickly overcome recycling reluctance.
It is estimated by the government that as much 85 percent of all office waste going to landfill is recyclable. This is because the majority of office waste is mixed together in general purpose office bins at source. Ecobins solve this problem easily and cheaply. By separating waste at source they put 85 percent landfill reduction within reach of anyone still reliant on outdated waste disposal methods.
