Sustainability isn’t just a trend – in today’s world, it’s an absolute necessity. With increasing pressure to reduce carbon footprints and operate more efficiently, businesses are rethinking their waste management strategies.
Enter Unisort’s Liner System, a revolutionary approach to waste disposal that’s cleaner, quicker, and greener. But why should your business make the switch?
Let’s explore the compelling reasons.
The Problem with Traditional Waste Bags
Standard plastic bin bags are inherently wasteful. Think about it: large, plastic bags line bins, but often aren’t full before being emptied. These bags are discarded with excessive plastic material, contributing to unnecessary CO₂ emissions. The overhang on bins—a common sight in many facilities—only adds to this inefficiency, as does the rigid emptying schedule that doesn’t account for the actual volume of waste.
This leads to the following issues:
- Excessive Overhang: Traditional bin liners often have a massive overhang to secure them in place. This results in significant plastic waste, as the excess material is never utilised.
- Underfilled Bags: Cleaners typically empty bins at scheduled times, often when bags are only 20-50% full. This practice not only wastes plastic but also increases the frequency of bag changes, contributing to unnecessary CO2 emissions.
- One-Size-Fits-All Approach: Standard bags are designed to fit a range of bin sizes, but this one-size-fits-all mentality leads to further inefficiencies, as bags are rarely filled to capacity.
Unisort Liners: The Smart, Sustainable Alternative
Unisort’s Liners provide a game-changing solution to these problems. Designed with sustainability and efficiency in mind, these liners offer a smarter way to manage waste.
Significant Plastic and CO2 Savings
Unisort Liners guarantee up to 80% savings on plastic and the associated CO2 emissions. By eliminating the excess plastic typically seen with traditional liners, these continuous liners ensure that only the amount of plastic needed to contain the waste is used each time the bin is emptied and re-lined.
This reduction translates into substantial environmental benefits, as an example, one of our customers saves 300 tonnes of plastic and 1,400 tonnes of CO2 annually—equivalent to saving 28 million plastic bottles or powering 273 homes for a year.
No More Overhang or Partially Filled Bags
With Unisort Liners, there’s no more plastic hanging over the edge of the bin, and no more empty air space inside the bags. The entire capacity of the liner is utilised, meaning fewer bags are needed overall. This not only reduces plastic waste but also simplifies the waste management process.
Thinner but Stronger Liners
Despite being 50% thinner than standard bags, Unisort Liners are made from a special 3-ply LDPE formula, making them 3-4 times stronger. This means you can rely on these liners to handle even heavy or sharp waste without the risk of splitting, all while using less plastic.
Efficient Waste Management
The liner system streamlines the waste disposal process. Emptying and relining bins takes just 30 seconds, with the next liner always ready to go. This reduces labour time by 38%, allowing your staff to focus on other important tasks and increasing overall workplace productivity.
