New project in France with Lasso semi-underground containers

Around 300 Lasso Semi PE urban waste collection containers are being installed as part of the SICTOM Velay Pilat project, in the Haute Loire region, in France. These are semi-underground polythene containers, with a metal well and Kinshofer lifting system, and with a modular lid with two openings. These are containers with “Wood” coating, with a capacity of 5m³ for mixed waste, packaging and paper collection, and 3m³, dedicated to glass collection.

Lasso Semi PE are large capacity half-underground containers, prepared for any type of waste, from mixed waste, paper, glass, packaging and bio-waste. Its large storage capacity installed underground avoids the problems of garbage overflow, optimizing urban cleaning and reducing environmental pollution.

The Intercommunity Union for the Collection and Treatment of Domestic Waste (SICTOM Velay Pilat), created in 1982 on the initiative of 13 municipalities in the Loire and Haute Loire, has its headquarters in Saint Just Malmont. With a staff of 31 agents and a fleet of 8 collection vehicles, it is responsible for waste management in 24 municipalities, representing more than 37 thousand inhabitants.
