Quantum: Changing the recycling landscape in the Netherlands
Rhesa van Gijn marked the milestone by bringing in the 2 millionth container
Amersfoort, 4th December 2024 – Envipco’s Quantum Bulk Reverse Vending Machine (RVM) at Bungas in Bunschoten-Spakenburg has set a new benchmark in recycling success. Installed in late February 2024, the Quantum has surpassed an incredible milestone: 2 million containers recycled in just 9 months. This achievement highlights not only the machine's impressive capabilities but also the growing consumer demand for efficient, bulk-feed recycling solutions.

The Numbers Speak for Themselves
In just nine months, the Quantum RVM has processed over 2 million containers, demonstrating its ability to handle high volumes with ease. The machine’s performance averages thousands of containers daily, proving its unmatched efficiency. Its 24/7 availability and user-friendly design have made it a magnet for eco-conscious consumers, many of whom are willing to travel long distances to take advantage of its convenience.
Consumers are drawn to its simplicity: park next to the Quantum, unload a bag full of PET bottles and cans, and let the machine do the rest. The Quantum sorts all containers automatically and processes them rapidly. Customers can then choose to receive their deposit refund directly to their bank account via the Tikkie app or donate the refund to a local charity. It’s fast, easy, and hassle-free!
