Designed to cut costs, reduce collections
Smart Solutions
Educational institutions generate a wide range of waste types – from food and packaging to cardboard and general waste. At Bergmann Direct, we supply equipment tailored to help schools, colleges, and universities manage this waste effectively and in line with UK regulations.
Eco-Smart Food Waste Dryer
Food waste is a major challenge in schools and universities, particularly from kitchens, canteens, and dining halls. Our Eco-Smart Food Waste Dryer significantly reduces the volume and weight of food waste by up to 80%, cutting collection frequency and cost. It also supports compliance with UK regulations, including the Environment Act 2021, which mandates separate food waste collections for many educational sites.
Rotary Compactors & Vertical Balers
To handle dry recyclables such as cardboard and plastic packaging, we recommend our rotary compactors and vertical balers. These compact units save space and reduce the number of collections needed, making them ideal for sites with limited storage or access. Baling recyclable materials also opens opportunities for rebate income, supporting your sustainability goals.
Skip & Portable Compactors
For general waste, our Bergmann 414 Skip Compactor or larger portable compactors offer a clean, efficient solution. These high-performance machines reduce skip movements, lower transport costs, and help maintain a tidy site.
We’ll help you choose the right mix of equipment to match your waste streams, volumes, and operational needs – all while supporting a cleaner, more sustainable campus.
