Shopping areas and malls

Cleaner entrances, clear waste sorting, and charging stations for electric bikes. We’ll help you choose solutions that fit your visitor flow, the layout of the space, and daily operations.
Source sorting

Make it easy to sort your trash on the go

At entrances, dining areas, and walkways, visitors need to quickly understand where to dispose of their waste. Collect the correct waste categories in the same location and use clearly marked bins and consistent labeling.

Choose the capacity and location based on the type of waste generated. The stations should be easy to find and provide enough space for both visitors and staff to empty them.

Capacity and Operations

Plan for weekends, lunch rushes, and events

The amount of waste can vary between quiet weekdays and busy weekends. Where bins fill up quickly, compaction can provide more capacity for suitable waste.

Information on the fill level helps operations staff prioritize emptying. Adapt equipment and procedures to the load at each location.

Charging and Storage

Make room for visitors arriving by bike

Make charging part of the service at the retail location. Choose a solution based on where the bikes are parked, how long visitors stay, and who will be using the charging stations.

At the bike parking area: direct charging for compatible electric bikes and electric scooters.

For removable batteries: charging cabinets with lockable compartments for storage and charging during visits or the workday.

Frequently Asked Questions for Marketplaces

Different areas may require different capacities, layout, and functions. Consider how entrances, dining areas, walkways, and bike parking areas are used. Consistent signage and well-thought-out placement help visitors find their way.

Start by identifying what types of waste are generated, where they are generated, and how the collection process works. Adjust waste categories, disposal points, and capacity based on waste volumes and how often staff can empty the bins. Also plan for space needed for maintenance and access.

Direct charging is suitable when the bike remains at the charging station. Charging cabinets are suitable for removable batteries that need to be stored during a visit or the workday. The choice should take into account location, electrical connection, compatibility, and how users access the charging station.

Please describe which areas are included, when visitor traffic is at its peak, and how waste removal works today. For charging, we need to know who will be using it and where it should be located. Photos or a simple site plan would be helpful.
