Why waste separation is important
In Switzerland, separating waste is part of everyday life. Those who sort waste properly actively protect the environment and conserve resources. PET, aluminum, paper, or organic waste can be more effectively recycled when disposed of correctly. This reduces the amount of residual waste, saves energy, and lowers CO₂ emissions. Recycling also decreases the demand for new raw materials. This benefits not only the environment but also your wallet.

Advantages of a well-designed waste separation system
A good waste separation system saves time and makes disposal more efficient. Clear colors, unambiguous symbols, and practical openings ensure that everyone knows what goes where. Mistakes in sorting are avoided, and disposal staff are relieved of extra work. Separate compartments for PET, aluminum, and residual waste allow for clean separation. This makes it easier to recycle materials and reduces the need for new resources. It saves energy and lowers CO₂ emissions.
Recycling stations in the household
A well-thought-out recycling station makes waste separation at home easier. Those who want to collect several types of waste in one place need a system with a clear structure.

Buying guide: What should you pay attention to?
Which waste separation system suits your needs? The most important factor is volume. For families, we recommend systems with three to four compartments. In smaller households, two separate containers are often sufficient. If the system is to be used outdoors, weather-resistant materials are essential. Labeling is also important. The clearer the labeling, the better waste separation works in everyday life. Our models are made of high-quality, stainless steel and are designed for different requirements.

Tips for sustainable waste separation in everyday life
With small adjustments, waste separation in daily life can be improved. Colored containers and clear pictograms help people find the right bin. Children can be involved through playful tasks. The system should also be easy for guests to understand. Sorting waste as it is generated saves time and effort during disposal. This way, waste separation becomes second nature.
