What is Envipco Compact Reverse Vending Machine?
The Compact Reverse Vending Machine (RVM) by Envipco is an entry-level recycling solution tailored for convenience stores that have limited space and handle low to moderate throughput. Perfect for spots processing fewer than 400 containers daily, this machine offers an effective way to encourage recycling without taking up much room. It’s lightweight, easy to install, and highly portable — making it a smart choice for smaller retail environments looking to boost their sustainability efforts.
Main Benefits of the Compact RVM
Here’s a quick snapshot of what makes the Compact RVM stand out:
- Screen: A crisp 11” high-resolution touchscreen that’s not just easy to use but also customizable — stores can display messages, promos, or recycling tips to engage customers.
- Infeed: Single-container system allowing bottles and cans to be recycled one at a time, keeping things simple and steady for small to medium stores.
- Voucher & Loyalty Card Reader: Integrated options for printing vouchers (physical or digital) and reading loyalty cards, linking recycling to rewards and encouraging repeat visits.
- Bins: Tote bin capacity of up to 500 co-mingled items, making it efficient for moderate daily recycling volumes and easy to empty without disrupting store flow.
Customization Options to Match Your Store
Envipco understands that every store has its own vibe and brand identity. That’s why their RVMs can be custom-wrapped to blend seamlessly into your environment. This isn’t just about looks — it’s another way to communicate your sustainability message and connect with customers on a deeper level. Custom designs can reflect your corporate identity and make the recycling station feel like a natural part of your store.
