Solves the dregs problem
27 June 2019
“I want to put my disposable coffee cup in the bin but what should I do with the liquid dregs?” A problem we have all encountered. Should I tip it all in the bin and hope for the best or attempt surreptitiously to water a nearby, unsuspecting potted plant?

Leafield Environmental provides an efficient answer in the form of the Aquapod, a stand-alone liquid collection reservoir with a 9.5 litre capacity; the ideal complement to any waste receptacle sited where drinks might be consumed.
Designed for internal use and standing some 664mm high, the AquaPod is a simple seamless moulding to ease cleaning, with no tight radii to form dirt traps.
Lightweight, yet inherently strong, the base is made from up to 100% recycled material. A clever moulded in handle makes handling and emptying a simple proposition.
Drinks dregs in dry mixed recycling can pose a major problem to janitorial staff and recycling organisations alike. At less than £85 (excluding VAT), AquaPod from Leafield Environmental could well be the solution.
