Why recycle Aluminium Cans?

Recycling aluminum cans is not only cost-effective, but it also reduces the need for mining and extracting new aluminum. Aluminium is a valuable resource that can be recycled indefinitely without losing its quality.

A better way of recycling cans

Recycling cans is a vital step in reducing waste and conserving valuable resources. But effective waste management goes beyond simply placing cans in a recycling bin. It also means managing the volume, cost, and logistics of disposal. By compacting cans, you ensure that bins and containers are filled with recyclable material – rather than wasted space filled with air – making the entire process more efficient and cost-effective.

Recycling cans: Improved waste handling

Recycling cans plays a key role in reducing waste and promoting sustainability, but efficiency is just as important as recycling itself. One effective solution for recycling cans is the use of a Mil-tek industrial can crusher, which can reduce the volume of cans and drums by up to 90%.

By compacting waste to a fraction of its original size, businesses benefit from improved waste handling, lower disposal costs, and a cleaner, more sustainable operation, all with a low-cost, low-energy solution.

Part of a clean and hygienic kitchen

In industrial kitchens, where large volumes of cans are used in food production, proper waste disposal is crucial.

A Mil-tek can crusher can be installed directly inside the food preparation area to handle all forms of cans and drums up to 30 litres. This makes disposal cleaner and more hygienic.

Also for paint and oil cans

Businesses that deal with paint or oil cans, also have unique waste management needs. Mil-tek waste management consultants can work with these businesses to ensure the workplace is properly set up to allow staff to easily and safely compact and store all cans and drums from paint and oil. By taking these steps, businesses can save money on transportation costs and reduce their environmental impact.
