CIRCULAR ECO
The bins are designed to use the correct amount of material and energy, by using the latest injection moulding techniques. This technique ensures effective waste control. Furthermore, SULO has developed post-industrial HDPE supply chains from sites close to Langres, thus promoting local ecology. Waste is no longer considered as such and is turned into a resource. Certain types of damage to Circular Eco bins are repairable. In fact, they are designed so that broken parts and accessories can be readily replaced. The wheels and axles can be removed and reused. Waste control and savings go hand in hand!
The bins, made of 100% recycled HDPE, include a minimum of 60% of post-household consumption waste (household bottles, caps). The additional recycled material is provided by using old bins returned by local authorities, businesses and other industrial sources. Our factories currently using optical sorting machines and a grinder to broaden the range of colours produced from recycled material. It recycles 100% of its waste and now repurposes 85% of its waste overall. With the exception of the steel axle and wheel tyres, the entire bin is made of a single material to facilitate recycling. The bin is 100% recyclable.
Completely recycled
The bins in our new range are eco-designed and manufactured completely from recycled plastics. They are easily repairable to extend their useful life and are recycled at end of life. This is the result of several years of commitment by SULO, whose expertise is now unique in Europe.

Circular Eco, bins that make sense for separate waste collection
The first range in Europe to be 60% made from recycled household bottles, clear proof of the efficiency of sorting and the reality of recycling. With that in mind, Circular Eco bins are also a full-blown vehicle for communication and not just simple pre-collection bins!
An individual visual identity
Circular Eco bins look different to those manufactured with virgin materials. For instance, they have slight variations in shade compared to traditional bins. The container might also have tiny irregularities. This appearance is a response to the scepticism of some householders about the contribution of their sorting efforts to the final processing of waste and to the often asked question about the future of the materials. The “Circular Eco” branding, combined with the appearance of our bins, is proof that they are 100% recycled.
Reduced carbon impact
The new 120-litre bin can be stacked 16 deep instead of 13 with the previous model and this means 249 additional units in an 80 m³ trailer.
Easier to work with
The reduced weight of the bins makes them easier for waste collection operatives to work with, in keeping with recommendation R437. In addition, reduced strain on container-lifting mechanisms leads to lower energy consumption and maintenance costs.
The nice smell of recycling
Mostly made from cleaning product bottles, the bins retain their characteristic clean smell! A light but pleasant fragrance masks bad smells and encourages correct sorting. Why be without it?
AFAQ - Economie Circulaire
SULO is the first French company who is awarded with AFAQ Economie circulaire, a valuation model based on the XP X30-901* standard, which indicates its ability to carry out projects in the field of circular economy. The evaluation carried out by AFNOR Certification concerns two projects led by the SULO industrial site in Langres around Circular Eco® brand products:
- 100% recyclable bins made entirely of recycled materials
- The integration of at least 60 % of material from post-consumer household consumption (bottles, caps, etc.) into recycled High Density Polyethylene (HDPE).
