Garbage Chutes

Our garbage chutes centralise and simplify waste disposal in multi-floor buildings across the UK. We supply all sizes and specifications to meet building regulations, delivering cost-effective, safe and compliant systems to architects, principal contractors and main contractors.

Laundry Chutes

Laundry chutes are essential in luxury hotels, BTR developments and private residences for managing bulky linen. We offer full system design, fabrication, installation and laundry room carts on wheels — including rolltainers and folding tables.

Pneumatic Chutes

Our stationary pneumatic refuse systems use vacuum transport to collect and compact waste — an ideal solution for high-density urban schemes and regeneration projects across the UK. The underground system handles multiple waste streams from the same pipe network, reducing visible bins and improving estate presentation.

Construction Chutes

Our metal debris chutes are a durable, sound-insulated solution for high-rise construction sites in the UK. We also offer soft-case nylon chutes for flexible setup and HDPE skips with pulley systems for safe discharge from height.

Recycling Chutes

Our automatic recycling chutes support compliance with UK waste segregation requirements, enabling easy separation of plastics, metal and cardboard via push-button selector panels on every floor — streamlining waste sorting at the source and supporting your building's sustainability credentials.

Carousels & Conveyors

Bin carousels and conveyors reduce caretaker and facilities staff workload by rotating full bins with empty ones. They can be integrated with automatic bin press conveyors for maximum compaction, freeing up valuable bin store space in UK residential and mixed-use schemes.

Chute Fed Compactors

Our chute-fed compactors offer compact, hygienic and powerful solutions for bin stores and waste rooms in UK buildings — ideal for reducing waste volume directly at the point of collection and cutting collection costs on tight urban sites.

Press Containers

Downwaste press containers compress waste fractions to as little as one sixth of their original volume, significantly reducing the footprint of bin stores in UK residential towers, hotels and commercial buildings. Available in a range of capacities.
