Flexible and modular waste systems

Move your waste solution effortlessly during cleaning. Strong wheels are hidden behind the plinth, allowing the system to be moved easily.
Get the right waste‑sorting solution that fits your budget and interior
Educational institutions and libraries are used by many different people — often not the same individuals every day. This places high demands on the waste‑sorting setup. We won’t recommend a solution until we understand the answers to the most important questions.
How many students and users are there?
It’s important for us to know roughly how many students and staff will use the waste‑sorting system. This helps us recommend the right number of bins, as the number of users per system is crucial for ensuring efficiency and meeting your needs.
How do users move around the building?
To recommend the most effective placement of bins, we need to understand where and how users move throughout the institution. Besides classrooms, are there shared areas that require specific sorting setups?
How is the building designed?
We need to understand the layout of your facilities. The number of classrooms, the size of the canteen or lunch area, and whether you have many small or large rooms all influence the ideal waste‑sorting setup.
Who is responsible for maintaining the solution?
Our goal is to recommend a solution that saves you time and resources. Therefore, we need to know who empties the bins, who handles cleaning, and how you manage waste sorting today.
What is your budget for waste sorting?
It’s essential for us to offer a solution that meets your budget requirements. We need a clear framework so we can recommend the best possible solution.
Scalable waste sorting
One solution for all your sorting needs.
Now and in the future
Waste‑sorting requirements at your library or educational institution may change — and so may your needs. Perhaps you need more fractions in certain areas? With Bica, you’re guaranteed one flexible solution that can always be scaled up or down.
The system is modular, making it easy to connect more or fewer bins. So you never need to worry about sorting additional waste types in the future. We’ll take care of that.
From waste to resources
"The building is designed with many shared areas across several floors, which required flexible solutions that naturally fit into the environment."

WHY BICA?
5 reasons to choose Bica
Front doors with soft close function
The front doors ensure an ergonomic correct work posture in connection with bin liner replacement. With the fitted soft close, the doors will close slowly and in a sliding motion, preventing fingers from getting caught.
Modular waste systems
The Bica system is a modular system and you can get a waste sorting solution with exactly the numbers of fractions you need. Should your needs change, you can adapt your solution and add more bins by means of our clever magnet system.
Adjustable feet and hidden casters
The Bica system has hidden feet and casters separated from the waste which also ensures a minimalist look. The feet are easily adjusted to ensure correct height, and the casters allow the system to be moved for easy cleaning.
Robust and time-saving bin liner holders
To prevent the bin liners from sliding off, the Bica system uses strong bin liner holders that are easy to handle. This saves both time and effort when bin liners are replaced.
Made from powder painted steel
The Bica system is made from highly durable powder painted steel which ensures the longevity of the solutions. At the same time, this material is easy to clean and requires very little maintenance.
Typical questions and answers
Why should I sort my waste?
There are several reasons. Sorting ensures that smaller amounts of waste end up being incinerated. Waste sorting also helps recycle far more materials and thereby reduces CO2 emissions by reducing the need to produce new materials.
How can we reduce the amount of waste we produce?
There are several ways to reduce waste. For example, we can reuse paper as filling in shipping boxes, buy reusable coffee cups instead of disposable ones, buy more second‑hand items instead of new ones, choose products with less packaging, and compost food waste instead of throwing it in the waste bin.
What can organic waste be converted into?
The organic waste is recycled to extract biogas, which is used for environmentally friendly electricity, heat or fuel.
