Envac's pneumatic waste system uses visible, nearby inlets for different waste types to boost recycling rates. When containers fill, trucks haul them away, while the NVAC system prevents overflow and converts storage space into income. More recycling means less landfill waste and lower carbon emissions from collection trucks.

Modern cities need to reduce the growth of waste volumes through recycling and reuse. An Envac system puts attractive inlets for different fractions close to users at highly visible locations and therefore increases the recycling rate. Once the container is full, a truck hauls it away for final treatment. With an NVAC system, inlets never overflow. Waste storage space now generates income. Recycling drives up resource recovery rates and diverts waste from landfills. Reduced waste traffic lowers carbon dioxide emissions.
