The bin for a livable world: CITYBAC 360 l

The modern ECO design of the 360 l CITYBAC bin meets all requirements of the new sustainable bin generation:

• The attractive aesthetics of the F-shaped design integrates harmoniously into modern architecture
•  Low material consumption and thus savings of 82% CO2
•  Controlled weight reduction for optimal handling
•  Improved mechanical resistance

All SULO production sites are geared towards the continuous improvement of energy efficiency through digital control systems. Our machine parks including the supplying infrastructures are constantly modernized. Industry 4.0. means for SULO realizing the vision of an environmentally neutral and energy self-sufficient production.

Certification according to ISO 14001, energy management system ISO 50001, EN 840.

Through design and state-of-the-art process technology, SULO developers were able to achieve a controlled weight reduction. The total weight is only 12.3 kg, which is 25% less weight than before with noticeable effects:

• less recyclable material used
• less transport weight
• less weight for refuse collectors

The reduced weight of the CITYBAC 360 l has a positive effect on the workload of the wasteworkers and the handling of the citizens. A wasteworker empties about 600 bins per day. If the weight of the bin is reduced up to 4.5 kg, each employee has to move 2.9 t less every day. All in all it´s about 25% less weight to move for the waste workers.

All bins are fully recyclable and at the end of their lifecycle flow completely into the production of new bins. Our in-house extruders for recycled plastics enable us to specifically process resources from the recycling loop. This significantly minimizes the consumption of fossil raw materials, including the resulting CO2 emissions.

SULO's material expertise is critical to producing high-quality bins from up to 100% recycled HDPE. With extruders and in-house color sorting machines, we are able to process post-consumer plastic from bottles and packaging. The rest flows in from sorted out old bins, canoes and industrial HDPE waste such as pallets and the like.
