HAUPPAUGE, N.Y.—Glaro Inc., a leading manufacturer of metal recycling receptacles, announces a new way for facility managers to create their own RecyclePro recycling stations without hiring a designer or consultant. According to executives, while it is common to order three or more recycling receptacles of the same diameter (for example 15”) and connect them, customers can now join various Glaro recycling receptacle sizes together to create their own unique recycling station. The key to this innovation is the Glaro aluminum connector bracket.
“The result of using Glaro Inc. connector brackets is that customers can form any configuration that they desire,” said Glaro executive vice president Robert Betensky. “This flexibility is possible because Glaro Inc. connector brackets are universal for Glaro receptacles, allowing mixed sizes of receptacles to be easily connected. The customer may also specify the order in which the receptacles are to be arranged. Depending on the location, the size of each recycling receptacle can be selected to meet the volume of each recycling stream. For example, if experience shows that there is little need for a receptacle for paper, choose a smaller model. If near vending machines, for example, where the need to handle bottles and cans is greater, one may choose a larger receptacle. In addition, the color of each receptacle may match or be different. A choice of 31 finishes is available.”
When asked where the concept for Glaro’s connector brackets originated, Betensky added, “We have always listened to our customers and developed practical products based on current market needs. In this case, the market asked for a way to customize their own recycling receptacle stations using any of the standard Glaro diameter receptacles which include 12”, 15”, and 20” diameters. In response we designed attractive, inexpensive, matching connectors.”
