The Challenge

Two problems land on your desk at once.

Adding plastic film to your collections sounds simple. In practice, it splits into two jobs — and getting either wrong means cost, contamination and complaints.

PROBLEM ONE

Where do the bags come from?

You need tough, low-cost, film-only bags at scale — ready for kerbside or communal collection, and printed for your scheme. Sourcing and specifying them is a project in itself.

PROBLEM TWO

How do you get the bags to the customer?

How do we handle the initial rollout? Who delivers them? How do residents reorder? Where do we store the stock? All valid operational and logistic concerns but they're all concerns we cover extensively.

FlexCollect solves both problems — as a single supplier

What you get

One supplier. The whole rollout.

Procurement

We handle all procurement, logistics, stock and store, delivering to depot or resident. Resident reordering facilities are also available.

Purpose-built bags

You need tough, low-cost, film-only bags at scale — ready for kerbside or communal collection, and printed for your scheme.

Artwork

Our design or yours — we can accomodate and advise. We have produced artworks that are purely aesthetic, entirely functional and everything in between.

OPTIONAL

Sorting tech for your MRF

Add another stream and recycling gets overwhelming fast. Unclear guidance means the wrong things go in the bag — and contamination undoes the whole effort.

The Bag

Thin film collection bag

Purpose-built for the job. Tough enough to carry up to 8kg, thin enough to cut cost and carbon on every single bag.

OPional perforations

Tappred air escapes as bags compact — less bursting, no litter, cleaner vehicles.

cleaner streams

Transparent, tinted film means cleaner sorting and easy visual checks at the kerb and the depot.

WHAT RESIDENTS RECEIVE

Scan and find your council. Sort with confidence.

This is what a resident sees when they scan the QR on their bag — correct, up-to-date information for their exact council. Try it on the right.
