PNEUMATIC COLLECTION

Efficiency, speed and reduction of environmental impact

URD AWC -Urban Refuse Development Automatic Waste Collection

PNEUMATIC WASTE COLLECTION

Pneumatic garbage collection is an innovative system that transports urban or private solid waste through a subway network of pipes that works by suction.

This method eliminates the need for traditional trucks, reduces odors and improves the hygiene and aesthetics of the city, helping to reduce emissions and minimize traffic and noise on the streets.

  • Improved hygiene and cleanliness: Eliminates unpleasant odors and avoids the accumulation of garbage and waste in streets.
  • Improves visual impact: By eliminating visible containers and garbage accumulated on the surface.
  • Reduces traffic and noise: By not having to use garbage trucks.
  • Efficiency: Automates waste collection and transportation, optimizing waste management.
  • Increased sustainability: Greener cities by reducing the carbon footprint and facilitating recycling.
  • Healthier and safer spaces: Prevents the proliferation of insects and rodents, especially in summer.
  • Deposit: Users place waste at specific points, located in buildings or public spaces.
  • Activation: The system is set in motion by automatic suction cycles controlled by a central controller.
  • Transport: Waste travels through a subway network of pipes thanks to pneumatic suction.
  • Reception: It arrives at a central plant where it is accumulated in closed, hermetically sealed containers.
  • Removal: The stored waste is transferred from the plant to treatment or recycling plants.

MISSION AND VISION

MISSION

URD builds pneumatic waste collection systems for public and private institutions, reducing the impact of waste management and simplifying the process for municipalities, waste managers and users. URD systems are environmentally friendly; they promote recycling strategies and minimise CO2 emissions into the atmosphere.

VISION

Pneumatic collection will become the reference model in large or small high-density areas, both in public and private areas, due to its concept, modernity, quality of service, ecology and energy efficiency, in accordance with the new standards of cities.

SOLUTIONS

SYSTEM

URBAN

Streets without traffic and noise nuisance, safer, cleaner, odor-free and pest-free.

Our urban pneumatic garbage collection system reduces the carbon footprint of waste collection by -60% and allows us to obtain valuable information on actual waste generation, recycling rates and opens the possibility of a fairer charge per generation to the citizen.

SYSTEM

COMPACT

24/7 systems without restriction of use for users, odors or pests.

Having a pneumatic collection system revalues the property, facilitating its subsequent sale.

Improve your space since you do not need to store the waste in multiple places in the building.

DOWNSPOUTS

SMART

URD downspouts allow users to dispose of waste on each floor without having to go down to the first floor. They are self-cleaning and anti-odor. It is a convenient, safe, clean and economical solution to improve the quality of the building and its neighbors.

SYSTEM

BAGLESS

Bagless organic waste collection systems are ideal for high production areas such as hospital kitchens, resorts, caterings or industries. They offer immediate and automatic waste disposal.
