Sidcon; an innovative and sustainable company

In 2008, Sidcon delivered the very first underground compactor for plastic packaging to the Dutch waste collector Circulus. This innovative solution immediately demonstrated what was possible in the field of more efficient waste management. Not long after, the underground compactor for residual waste was introduced. In 2019, we expanded our range with a compactor specifically designed for paper and cardboard.

Since then, innovation hasn’t stopped. One of our developments is the underground compactor with a tipping system for wheeled bins. This solution enables the emptying of wheeled bins into an underground compactor, ideal for shops and hospitality businesses. The result? Fewer collection movements, lower CO₂ emissions, and more efficient use of public space.

Thanks to these and other innovations, our systems contribute to more sustainable waste policies in cities and municipalities. Compactors need to be emptied far less frequently and fewer containers are required to process the same amount of waste.

Sustainable waste collection

Quality in Continuous Development

At Sidcon, we believe true quality lies in the details. That’s why our underground compactors are constantly being refined, with a strong focus on robustness and reliability. The thoughtful design ensures our containers can withstand intensive use, while the risk of malfunctions or jamming is kept to a minimum.

For us, improvement isn’t a one-off project, but a continuous process. This philosophy is embedded in what we call the ‘loop of improvement’: a structured approach in which we continuously look for ways to enhance our products. In our early years, we implemented updates and optimisations almost weekly. These days, they occur less frequently, but remain an integral part of our development process. This allows us to keep up with evolving customer needs and ever-stricter market requirements.

“Sidcon has a high-quality product, the company listens to our needs and provides innovative solutions. Response to any questions we have is fast and their way of working is flexible. Sidcon’s staff stand full-square behind the quality of the product and that’s an ingredient for effective cooperation.”

From Concept to End Product: All Under One Roof

What makes Sidcon unique is that we manage the entire chain—from design to production—in-house. Our products are fully developed and manufactured in the Netherlands, primarily using local suppliers. We do this deliberately: it gives us full control over quality, shortens communication lines, and allows us to respond quickly.

Our in-house engineering department ensures that innovative ideas are quickly turned into functional solutions. Whether it’s a new type of container or modifying existing systems, we can evaluate and adjust rapidly. This flexibility is crucial in a world where sustainability, circularity, and efficient space use are becoming increasingly important.

Working Together Towards Smarter Waste Collection

With our underground compactors, we not only deliver a technically advanced product but also contribute to a more liveable and future-proof society. Fewer collection trucks on the road, lower emissions, and containers with greater capacity, that’s the power of innovation in waste collection.
