More efficient, greener & smarter

Underground compactors

Direct to all products

De ondergrondse perscontainer

The underground compactor allows for greater capacity in the same-sized concrete pit

More waste collection with fewer resources. Fewer refuse trucks on the streets and fewer waste bins on pavements mean less congestion and more open spaces.

The underground compactor has a unique compaction mechanism which gives an increase of between six and ten times more waste capacity.

This results in fewer containers and fewer waste collections being needed. Simply by installing a Sidcon waste compacter you will be contributing to a cleaner, greener and quieter streetscape.

Why opt for an underground compactor?

More green spaces around town and fewer refuse trucks on the road. This is what municipalities are crying out for. The installation of underground compactors will help towards meeting these demands.

The greater capacity afforded by an underground compactor means fewer containers needed on the streets. Neither do they need emptying so frequently. The result: less congested streets and more open spaces.

The underground compactor is available for three different waste flows: waste paper and cardboard; residual waste; and recyclable plastics. The lifting mechanism can be adapted to suit the refuse truck being used. The underground compactor can be dropped into existing concrete wells, so can be introduced in any municipality.

The underground compactor for every location

Due to the higher waste capacity of the underground compactor, fewer containers are needed. This makes it the solution for busy waste collection locations. In city centers or high-rise buildings, one compactor effortlessly replaces 4 to 6 regular underground containers.

For quieter locations with longer driving distances, such as villages, the countryside or vacation parks, the compactor also offers a solution. Thanks to its high waste capacity, the container needs to be emptied less frequently. This saves garbage trucks and avoids long, costly drives.

Making waste collection more sustainable and more efficient

Making waste collection more sustainable and more efficient through innovation is the vision shared by founders Reinier Siderius and Boris Gubbels. It was this in mind when, in 2008, the underground compactor was designed and went into production. The Freshstation Organic followed soon after.

With a passion and desire to make a positive impact, at Sidcon we do things together. We aim to have a positive impact on the climate and on society in general. For example, we take on employees who would otherwise face difficulties getting onto the labour market and we are constantly in search of ways to reduce our carbon footprint.
