PUBLIC GLASS BOTTLES RECYCLING BIN DESIGN
DESIGN CONCEPT
Concerning the rate of rubbish disposal on the beaches in Hong kong,
there are approximately 5 millions glass bottle collected from the beach everyday.
Glass itself requires a long time to decompose but it has high recyclability.
For instance, ground bricks and stone tables can be produced with wasted glass bottles.
The glass recycling bins are aimed for both disposal of fluids and glass bottle separately.
It's clean, simple, and easier for the glass bottle collector to change the inner capacity.
The design of the base stand is to secure the bin firmly into the sand,
double layering of the bin reduces the noise of throwing the bottles in.
Various bottles collection (i.e. Cans, plastic bottles) will be further developed based on the original design.
