RECYCLING & WASTE MANAGEMENT

Transform waste and recycling in the workplace
Keep reading to find out how Method Recycling can help you to reach your KPIs.
Globally, recycling and waste are among the most talked- about issues, and while most of us recycle at home it tends to lag in the workplace.
Kiwi couple Steven and India Korner continued to see organisations that wanted to recycle without the tools to be successful. So, they set out on a mission to create a recycling solution that works for all stakeholders within a business – and they’ve succeeded.
The Method Recycling System helps organisations to not only save recyclables, but also time and money. The beautiful bins can be found in leading organisations around the world including renowned British architecture firm Foster + Partners, the large flexible coworking provider The Office Group, the Sydney Cricket Ground, Qantas and many more.
The Method system
The Method system is based on human-centred design and the core principles of visibility, consistency and efficiency. The Method System is comprised of beautiful 20 and 60L bins that organisations can be proud to have out in the open within their spaces. They feature bold colour-coded lids and clear icons to help users to accurately separate their waste.
The 60L bins are for large open plan spaces such as the office floor, kitchens, foyers and event spaces, while the 20L bins are for smaller shared spaces such as boardrooms, kitchenettes or studios. Having the two bin sizes allows you to introduce a consistent solution throughout your space. Further, through regular interaction with the consistent bins, recycling starts to become an unconscious habit for users, and you begin to recycle more and waste less.
Further, Method has accessories to streamline the process, including Desktop precyclers that encourage users to separate waste at their desk (without wasting liners) before they’re emptied into the nearest station, as well as connectors engineered to hold 60L recycling stations into place, side-by-side or to a wall, so your bins always stay in place.
Method and cleaners
Moving from desk bins to Method bins creates an efficient system that means you’re not only saving recyclables, but also time and money. The Method system’s use of centralised stations means that there are significantly fewer bins and liners to purchase and service resulting in significant time and cost savings over a year.
For example, in an office with 110 staff in a 15,000 sq. ft office over 240 workdays there would be 90% fewer liners to change without desk bins, and the cost savings over a year can be seen in the table above – not to mention the reduced cost of waste disposal as you recycle more and waste less.
The bins also feature a patented Bag Retainer System that locks liners into place while hiding them from sight. This makes servicing quick and hygienic as the liner never slips out of place, and maintains the sleek appearance of the bins. The 20L bins have an easy-grip handle built-in so that the contents of these smaller bins can be emptied into larger bins without having to change and waste liners.
Sharmal Singh, Global Office Architect, said that design giant Canva found that: “Since finding Method, we now have a waste solution that complements our aesthetic, is clear to the team, neat and scalable for our fast-growing company. The hospitality staff have also found the bins easy to clean, re-line and maintain.”
