Diverting more food scraps from municipal solid waste is exactly what the metroSTOR F-Series was designed for. Our customers wanted a robust unit for organics collections, neat and convenient to use, with controlled access to keep the recycling streams clean. The F-Series offers a proven solution!
Efficient refuse collection is central to metroSTOR product design and the F-Series is manufactured in three model sizes to fit 35 gallon, 65 or 65 gallon carts in a compact, clean enclosure. Straightforward to operate and maintain, food scraps are deposited in the opened cart through a foot pedal operated lid on top of the unit.
Unless the contamination of feedstock can be minimized, cart enclosures are of limited value and metroSTOR F-Series can be specified with controlled access via BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) smartphone app or an electronic keypad, both with low maintenance battery power.
The requirement to handle food waste containers can discourage use and the foot pedal operated lid is designed for both ease of operation and ensuring the food scraps housing is enclosed as soon as the food waste has been deposited. This function limits odours and other undesirable side effects as the food waste deposits start to degrade within the cart.
Cleaning regimes are supported with stainless steel touchpoints on the lid handle and aperture surround as standard. Modular component engineering ensures maximum reliability in harsh urban environments, with toughest Hot-Dip Galvanised coatings possible on high wear components such as door frame and unit base. Separate panel coating prior to unit assembly, enables a stringent, multi-stage pre-treatment and powder coating process.
