Recycling stations

All departments should* have at least one Recycling station. A Recycling station is equipment for departmental handling and collection of household-like waste. It consists of pieces of furniture that the department can assemble according to its own needs and place on the department in a suitable way.

In recycling stations You may leave only:

Packaging
- Glas (coloured/uncoloured)
- Paper (single layer)
- Corrugated cardboard
- Metal
- Plastic
Waste paper (blue and white vessels)
Combustible waste***
Electric waste** Including lamps/batteries

Make sure:

Waste should be so clean that you dare pour it out on your own kitchen table!
Don’t overfill the bins!
Nothing on floor!
Liquids, laboratory waste, or other hazardous waste must not be left in the recycling stations, unless otherwise agreed with BMC Technical support.
All packaging marked with hazard pictograms "toxic," "environmentally hazardous" or "harmful" should always be handled as chemical waste without prior cleaning and with the cap tightly closed on.

Contact BMC Technical Support (teknisktstod@bmc.uu.se) for more information and demonstration of the equipment.
