EQUIPMENT FAMILY

Choose a reverse vending machine your team can run.

Compare six RECYNEX RVM equipment directions for retail, campuses and operators. Choose by container stream, site space, collection routine and software scope.

HOW TO CHOOSE

Four questions before a machine is selected.

What returns?

Bring representative packaging and a clear exclusion list.

Where is it placed?

Review visitor flow, power, network and service access.

Who runs it?

Name collection, cleaning and exception owners.

What connects?

Define reporting, customer systems and software scope.

Compare the six families

The RECYNEX range covers compact public return points, a standard bottle-and-can station, storage-led and specialist configurations, and an operator-led batch path. These are equipment directions, not interchangeable promises of capacity or material compatibility. Use the comparison below to identify what a supplier must validate for your site.

Family Intake and operator model Decision that changes the configuration
Mini Focused public return at a compact staffed site Available floor and service space; collection frequency
One Everyday public bottle-and-can return Approved packaging samples and visitor instructions
Max Public return with a larger holding plan Material mix, peak returns and removal interval
Outdoor Public return near an exposed approach Actual weather exposure, shelter, power and fault response
Glass Dedicated glass handling Refill or cullet destination, breakage and staff safety
Bulk Staffed batch intake Inbound mix, sorting, line flow and reconciliation

What a useful proposal specifies

Each proposal identifies the selected configuration, approved sample set, site requirements, equipment tests and operating roles. It separates the machine from software access, integration, installation, training, transport and support. Numerical dimensions, capacity, throughput and environmental ratings are attached to the exact configuration and test conditions—not inferred from product imagery.

If you already operate an app or reporting platform, ask for equipment and a qualified event interface rather than assuming a platform replacement. Send the site and packaging brief or use the selection guide.
