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.

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 Freshstation Organic is ideal for the collection of organic waste (fruit, vegetables and food scraps) in high-rise settings. The container’s active refrigeration system helps keep malodorous smells at bay, as well as prevent the development of fruit flies and maggots. The location used remains fresh and hygienic, which means this container is perfect for indoor use. For example, in a hallway you use every day. Research has shown that this results in improved waste separation rates and better quality.
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 and the Presstation Compact followed soon after.
