Is this recyclable? Smart bins with barcode scanning systems help consumers recycle better.

Multiple studies and surveys find that most consumers are unsure of what is recyclable and what is not. Globally, recycling rates are deplorably low, especially when it comes to plastics - in fact, less than 10 percent of all plastics are recycled. To make matters worse, actions such as wishing to recycle end up causing pollution, and sometimes entire recycling bins have to be thrown away.

A smart bin that includes a barcode reader can easily solve this problem by scanning the barcode on the item you want to throw away or recycle to know from the app whether the item is recyclable or non-recyclable waste.

Recently, several technicians or purchasers engaged in research and development of such projects have contacted LONVILL for information on barcode scanning modules that can be integrated into smart bins. Here we recommend our self-developed YJD600 barcode scanner, with good performance, high cost performance, fast and stable barcode scanning. If you need more information, please contact us at sales@lonvill.com
