In these days of environmental awareness and reducing your carbon footprint, there are still 600,000 tonnes of glass bottles thrown out from pubs, clubs, hotels, restaurants and cafés each year … and up to 75% of this is currently being sent to landfill sites.

 

It is only a matter of time before local authorities pass the escalating cost of landfill onto licensed premises ... this is in addition to how much recycling your glasses and bottles can cost in the first place.

 

However, Smashing Solutions literally has a smashing solution …

 

With their Smash & Grab LS02 glass crusher, gone are the days of full bottle bins that then have to be emptied and sorted into colours.  The LS02 will reduce glass waste by 80% by smashing as many as 18 bottles in 6 seconds on site without needing to separate the colours or remove corks, lids or tops.  That's 5 bins into 1!!

 

Good news for the environment!

The cullet (broken glass) from the machine is of a quality suitable for colour sorting, which means that it can be recycled back into glass products and not in landfill sites or aggregate.

 

Good news for your staff!

With a fully enclosed mechanism and at a safe working height, staff no longer need to worry about broken glass or lifting overfull and heavy bar bins.

 

Good news for you!

The machine is only 500 x 600 x 1120 mm and simply plugs into a standard 220/240 volt 3 pin socket, leaving you with more space behind the bar or in your storage area.

 

Good news for your bank balance!

 With fewer collections needed and less costs …more profit
