WBM at the Green Man Festival!

We’re glad that the weather’s taken a turn for the better this week, as we’re onsite at the Green Man Festival in Crickhowell, training the team to use our Recycling Processing Unit (RPU).

The RPU – which includes bulk can, cardboard and plastic balers, as well as a glass crusher – enables the festival organisers to sort waste on site and condense it down into manageable, stackable bales for easy storage and removal.

The machines are straightforward and easy to use, so after a short training session on each one, the team were able to get to grips dealing with the piles of plastic and cardboard packaging that were being created during the site setup. The unit will remain at the Green Man Festival until the whole festival is broken down and the clean up completed.

This year they’ll be able to send all of their clean cardboard, tin, glass, and soft plastics off for recycling. The baling system means the waste takes up to 80% less space, and the stackable bales mean easy storage whilst on site, less lorry trips and a much smaller carbon footprint, as well as cost savings too!
