"Plascan the world's favourite recycling tool"

What is the plascan crusher?

Product specification:

A lightweight 350g, easy to store, simple to use, washable, mobile, durable and made recycled plastic, inexpensive recycling tool designed for crushing empty plastic bottles and empty drink cans.

Brief:

  • the plascan crusher is a recycling device that safely and effectively crushes both empty plastic bottles & empty drink cans to the fourth of their original size!
  • using the plascan crusher will save so much storage space for your empty plastic bottles and empty drink cans, it will encourage more people all over the world to recycle more!
  • this in turn will make a significant benefit to our environment and the way we live, and will help the recycling process to function more efficiently!
  • one day we at plascan hope the crusher will be an everyday household item.
  • in the near future the plascan crusher will be marketed to the government, every council and recycling agency!
  • the plascan crusher is what the world has been waiting for to recycle empty plastic bottles and empty drink cans more effectively!

Other advantages:

It gives potential recyclers an incentive to save for recycling, as they will have less bulk to store.  use of the plascan crusher has environmental benefits as much more weight to volume of crushed cans and containers can now be transported or stored in the provided banks for recycling at any one time.  the cost of transporting bulky containers full of air will be reduced.  bottle and can banks can hold a greater amount over a longer period of time!  the plascan crusher crushes the container from top to bottom into a compact form, rather than sideways where they still cover a large surface area.  more and more companies are putting a special code at the base of the container to make sorting easier.  using the plascan crusher will keep the code intact and readable, ready for sorting.

Crushing bottles up to 2.5l:

  1. Place empty bottle onto non-slip surface, remove cap, place crusher onto bottle.
  2. Apply downwards pressure firmly with both hands and replace cap.
  3. Leaving the bottle inside the crusher and insert, lift all onto base, remove cap.
  4. Apply pressure again until bottle is completely crushed, replace cap.
  5. Remove crusher and insert from base to reveal crushed bottle.

Crushing container 3/6l:

  1. Separate crusher from insert and base to use on its own.
  2. Place empty container onto non-slip surface and remove cap.
  3. Place crusher onto neck of plastic container and hold evenly with both hands.
  4. Apply downwards pressure firmly until container is completely crushed.
  5. Replace cap to keep air out of container, remove crusher to reveal crushed container.

Crushing drink cans:

  1. Hold centre of empty can, gently squeeze to weaken and place on base.
  2. Place crusher with insert onto can, hold evenly with both hands.
  3. Apply downwards pressure firmly using both hands, or foot.
  4. Lift crusher & insert from base, to ensure can has been completely crushed.
  5. Remove crusher and insert from base to reveal crushed can.

Remember!

  • As you use the plascan crusher you will become increasingly familiar with the correct way to use it and crushing empty bottles and empty drink cans using the plascan crusher will become second nature to you.

     

  • You will marvel at the space in your bins that the plascan crusher will save you and every time you deposit your crushed empty drink cans and empty plastic bottles in the recycling bins you will feel proud in the knowledge that you are doing your bit to help the environment!
