Weirbags are proud to be Introducing a brand new, unique solution to kerbside recycling; the Flexibox at the Recycling and Waste Management Exhibition 2024! The Flexibox is a flexible woven polypropylene alternative to rigid kerbside recycling boxes. It’s a bag that performs just like a box! But it provides considerable cost savings.
Bringing a new twist on the traditional choice of recycling box or recycling bag, this solution offers the best features of both options; a product that can withstand daily wear and tear at a very cost-effective price.
The Flexibox key feature is the rigid hanging lip that ensures the bag retains its shape and allows it to be quickly lifted onto the side of kerbside sorting trucks.
Traditional kerbside recycling boxes are prone to breakage. Their rigid nature can be useful when filling or carrying the box, but this quality can also be a drawback. The cold weather affects the strength of the plastic, and any impact can split or break the box. The cost of replacing each broken unit can be considerable. Flexibox’s flexible nature can withstand impacts at the base and will not split or tear and it’s also water-resistant, tear-proof, and will last for years. Its clever construction means it stands rigid like a box, making filling and carrying easy.
A major annoyance for customers using recycling boxes is that the separate box lid is lost regularly. This is not only expensive but leaves the recycling open to moisture damage and potentially blowing down the street. With the Flexibox, the lid is fully attached to the bag and will not rip or blow away, keeping the contents dry and clean.
Another exceptional feature of a Flexibox is its ability to be made bespoke to your requirements. Boxes have a limited number of customisable options. Our Flexibox can be adjusted in size, colour, thickness, and branding, hanging, and lifting options. The Flexibox can be fitted with in an internal weighted base to help anchor it and it includes between 30 and 70% recycled content.
All the key components are made from the same material allowing full recycling at end of life.
But the best bit, our Flexibox provides a considerable cost saving compared to recycling boxes. Additionally, reducing the number of damaged units will provide further savings, making this an excellent way to maximise those budgets!
