Get to Know TOM, the Ultimate Automatic Waste Bin

The TOM is a highly efficient, multi-tasking automatic waste compaction system designed for heavily frequented public spaces like restaurants, airports, theme parks, and malls. About the same size as a conventional waste bin, this innovative unit features hands-free operation to keep environments tidy and hygienic while taking up minimal space. By automating waste collection and minimizing the physical footprint of trash, TOM helps facilities maintain a clean appearance and a streamlined workflow.

Maximizing Space and Hygiene with Intelligent Compaction

The TOM unit may look like a standard waste bin on the outside, but it houses a powerful built-in compactor that allows it to hold up to seven times more waste than a traditional receptacle. This impressive volume reduction means that staff spend significantly less time checking bins and changing bags, allowing them to focus on more productive customer-facing tasks.

Furthermore, compacted waste results in fewer full bags to transport, lowering both transportation costs and CO2 emissions. During periods of low traffic, specifically 30 minutes or more without anyone approaching, TOM’s smart sensors actively keep the trash compressed to help break it down and further maximize the unit’s holding capacity.
