Express ProductsOur Origin™ Trash and Recycling Bins earned a 2024 Green Apple Award in the category of Environmental Improvements.
The Green Organisation was established in 1994, as an independent non-profit group that champions and campaigns for environmental best practice around the world.
As part of this undertaking, The Green Organisation runs
annual Green Apple Awards, which have become one of the largest and most
prestigious environmental award campaigns in the world.
The intention of the Green Apple Awards is to recognize,
reward, and promote the environmental heroes that lead our transition to
greener and more sustainable solutions. The awards also aim to raise awareness
and encourage greater environmental involvement from organizations across the
globe.
Glasdon attended the 2024 award ceremony and were presented with the renowned Green Apple for our work in Recycled Product Innovation. The award was granted for our Origin range of exterior trash and recycling bins, which provide an environmentally friendly waste management solution for outdoor areas and natural surroundings.
The Origin range includes the Origin Curve Trash Bin and the Origin Curve Recycling Bin. Constructed with Vandalex™ corner posts and Enviropol™ slats, the trash and recycling bins utilize vandal-resistant technology that ensures durability and long-lasting service. Made of 86% recycled material, our Origin products are 100% recyclable at the end of their service life. In this way, they not only encourage others to recycle, but also practice what they preach by being entirely recyclable themselves.
With the Green Apple being an international award, Glasdon were facing an array of entrants from across the globe. We are incredibly proud to have been selected from such tough competition and be honored with this prestigious accolade.
Glasdon are committed to operating in a sustainable way, and continuously improving our environmental practices. Wherever possible, we use recycled and recyclable materials to construct our products, with ongoing research dedicated to learning new and more sustainable ways to manufacture and deliver. Additionally, with innovative and long-lasting design, we ensure that our products are the economical choice, and have minimal impact on the environment.
Working closely with our suppliers and distributors, we are focused on reducing our carbon footprint, and have committed to reaching Net-Zero by 2035.
