The Dutch waste management company AVALEX tested our biofilter lids in many households in the greater The Hague area with impressive results, which have now been published in the waste management trade magazine "Gram" - the summary:

  • 28% of participants say they put more food waste in the organic waste bin since the introduction of the organic waste bin with biofilter lid
  • More than 75% of participants experience no or only occasional odour nuisance following the introduction of bins with biofilter lids
  • Over 70% say they have no or far fewer problems with pests;
  • 85% advise Avalex to use the organic waste bin with biofilter lid at other locations as well.

Quote: "The pilot project has taught us that the biofilter lid can largely eliminate odour nuisance and vermin and thus promote the separation of organic waste. For this reason, among others, Avalex will use the biofilter lid as a collection method in high-rise complexes with an indoor bin location. "

We are delighted with these great results.
