Recycling aluminum cans should be easy. They’re lightweight, valuable, and endlessly recyclable — yet too often, they end up in the trash due to unclear signage or poor collection setups.
That’s where the AluMax® Recycling Bin from ClearStream steps in.
Whether you're organizing a stadium event, school program, or community cleanup, this bin is built to increase aluminum recovery and reduce contamination at the source.
Why Aluminum Cans Deserve Special Attention
Aluminum is one of the most sustainable materials on the planet. It can be recycled indefinitely without losing quality — and recycling it uses 95% less energy than making new aluminum from raw materials.
But aluminum only stays sustainable when it’s collected correctly. That means avoiding contamination with food, liquids, or other waste streams. The AluMax® system is designed to solve that problem.
What Makes the AluMax® Blue Bin Different?
Here’s what sets the AluMax® Blue apart from other collection systems:
- Dedicated Design: Every lid is clearly marked "ALUMINUM CANS ONLY" with three round openings that discourage improper disposal.
- Visual Feedback: The clear bag system lets people see the cans inside — a proven way to encourage correct sorting.
- Durable Steel Frame: Built with 3/8-inch round steel tubing, each frame can support up to 50 pounds without buckling.
- Lightweight and Portable: Weighing just 8 pounds, this bin folds down to less than an inch thick, making it ideal for transport and storage between events.
- Event-Ready Kit: Each 5-pack includes 5 blue lids, 5 steel frames, 5 support bars, and 100 clear 1.25 mil bags (40"x45").
Who Uses AluMax®?
The AluMax is trusted by:
- Sports Venues: Placed ear concession stands and drink zones to keep cans separate and from food waste
- Universities and Schools: Games, Concessions, Tailgating, Graduation, and other gatherings
- Festival Organizers: Easy to deploy in high-traffic areas, especially where alcohol and soft drinks are served.
- Municipal Programs: Ideal For Bottle-Bill redemption efforts or local recycling initiatives.
