Glasdon C-Thru™ Vape Recycling Bins

February 2024

The C-Thru 5L is also available in two other capacities; 10 and 15 litres, providing flexibility to choose appropriate capacity according to need. The compact size of the 5 litre model makes it ideal as a counter-top collection unit, whereas the 15 litre model is ideal where waste accumulates quickly. Material Focus has found that each vape typically has 0.15g of Lithium within its internal battery. This equates to 10 tonnes of the material which is mistakenly discarded each year, given the 1.3 million vapes being utilised on a weekly basis.* The bin features a clear polycarbonate body which is not only incredibly strong and hard-wearing but allows the contents to be seen, helping minimise the risk of cross-contamination. The bin features a funnel top lid with a narrow funnel aperture which accepts small waste deposits (e.g. vapes) whilst mitigating the risk that other unwanted waste is deposited.

The top and bottom handles provide easy handling to pick up and empty the C-Thru vape recycling bin.
