Slurrytub: Be a Sustainable Tradie Hero and Save the Day
Posted by joanne.macgregor@hg.com.au BigCommerce on 22nd Apr 2024
Right, listen up tradies! We all know the deal with slurry – messy, time-consuming, and a real pain to dispose of properly. But what if there was a way to be a sustainability superhero and ditch those dodgy skip bins, clogged drains, and council fines for good?
Enter the Slurrytub – your new best mate on site and a champion for the environment!
The Slurrytub: What is it?
Think of it like a magic bucket for your wet waste, especially that pesky concrete slurry. This tough tub is made from recycled plastic and comes with a built-in, biodegradable filter that's a dream for cleanups. The Slurrytub is a user-friendly and eco-friendly solution for managing wet trade waste, particularly concrete slurry. This heavy-duty, recyclable plastic tub boasts a built-in, biodegradable filter that simplifies the separation and disposal of slurry on-site.
How Does this Ripper Work?
It's a straight forward operation. Here's the lowdown:
Pop in the Filter: The tub comes with a single-use filter that sits snug inside – it's like a little "green" superhero waiting to tackle your waste.
Pour in the Gunk: Cement slurry, render mix, whatever wet trade waste you've got – poor it in the tub!
Wash Up Like a Champ (Optional): Here's the beauty – the filtered water can be used to clean your tools and equipment. Saving more water onsite!
Let it Drain: The magic filter does its thing, separating the solids from the liquids. In about 30-60 minutes, the clean water drains out, leaving the solids behind in the filter – easy as!
Bin it Right: Once the solids are dry, dispose of them as you normally would, in a skip bin with the filter depending upon your waste regulations – both are good to go. The filtered water? Tip it down the designated wash-out areas or even reuse it on site – your call!
