Envipco, a global provider of recycling systems and reverse vending machines
(RVMs), today announced that Envirobank, Envipco's Australian distributor of RVM
systems and technologies, is expected to deploy approximately 200 Envipco RVMs
in Zones 2 and 5 of Victoria.
Envirobank will operate automated collection points using Envipco RVM
technologies, and the machines are expected to begin installation within the
coming months. The news follows the introduction of the Victoria Container
Deposit Scheme, which will start on the 1st of November 2023, announced by the
Minister for the Environment in the state of Victoria on April 14, 2023.
"We are very pleased that our proven and highly professional Australian
distributor has been selected to automate collection sites as the state of
Victoria embarks on an ambitious Deposit Return Scheme. We are proud to see a
positive result of the tender process, and the conclusion of the anticipated
legislation," remarks Bob Lincoln President of Envipco.
Envirobank is an established operator in Australia with existing collection
sites in New South Wales, Queensland, and the Northern Territory. The addition
of Victoria represents a strengthened foothold in the maturing Australian
market.
"Victoria will be a significant addition to Envirobank's network and will
utilise unique outdoor kiosks in the regional Zone 2, and Envipco Optima
machines with charity groups in metro Zone 5. The initiative is set to make
recycling easy and efficient for consumers in Victoria. Australia continues to
be an important focus market for Envipco as Deposit Return Schemes mature and
the country continues to develop collection sites for deposit returns."
