Recycling Vending Machine Activity

The Recycling Vending Machine is an innovative solution that transforms environmental awareness into a high-tech entertainment experience within the event industry. Forget ordinary waste management; thanks to this system, every beverage container consumed at your fairs, festivals, mall events, or corporate meetings turns into a point-earning game tool for participants. These machines, which materialize your brand's sustainability vision, both protect the environment and ensure high interaction and visitor traffic at your stand through their integrated gamification setup. This experience, where waste turns into rewards, is the most modern way to showcase your brand's "green" side.

How Does the Recycling Vending Machine Work?

Operating on the principle of a Reverse Vending Machine, this system features smart sensors that recognize recyclable waste such as PET bottles, metal cans, or glass bottles used by participants during the event. The process turns a simple act of disposal into a competitive game:

• Interaction start: The participant approaches the machine with an empty package, following the instructions on the digital screen to place the waste into the designated slot.
• Recognition and scoring: The device analyzes the inserted item using barcode readers or weight sensors, assigning a specific score to the participant based on the type of waste (plastic, glass, metal).
• Competition and leaderboard: Every piece of waste means new points; these are displayed on the digital screen and recorded on the "Leaders of the Day" table created for the event, fostering a friendly rivalry among participants.
• Rewarding: At the end of the event, or for participants who exceed a certain score threshold, surprise gifts, discount vouchers, or promotional products are distributed via printed coupons or digital codes.

Technical Details and Setup

The Recycling Vending Machine offered by EDDRA can be easily integrated into any venue with its plug-and-play logic. It is designed to create a focal point without disrupting the flow of your event space. The basic technical requirements are as follows:

• Usage area: The device is suitable for both Indoor and Outdoor events. Thanks to its compact structure, it can be positioned in large fairgrounds or boutique launches without occupying excessive space.
• Personnel support: One technical personnel is assigned to intervene immediately in case of potential technical issues and to guide participants throughout the event.
• Capacity and duration: There are no limits on the number of people or duration; the system remains active for as long as your event lasts.
• Energy requirement: It operates with a standard 220V electricity connection and does not require an extra power unit.

Branding and Data Management

This vending machine is not just a bin; it is a smart marketing tool. The exterior of the device can be completely wrapped in your brand's colors, logos, and messages. Specifically, the transparent waste collection bin allows the contribution made to be visualized as the waste accumulates. On the software side, your brand logo is integrated into the game interface. One of the most important features is its Data Collection capability; by requiring participants who want to earn points or prizes to enter their contact information (in compliance with KVKK), a valuable lead pool is created for your brand. Thus, your event leaves behind not just a clean environment, but also actionable data.
