FLEXYCLE - Flexible Waste Collector Capsule

LUMA-iD提出了一种简单而有效的解决方案来收集灵活的家庭塑料废物。我们设计了一个概念（需要进一步开发）一种家用友好型、易于使用和美观的胶囊，其将柔性塑料压缩400%，而没有任何复杂的移动部件。该胶囊可以储存在桌面上，安装在橱柜内，固定在门上，或保持在外面，并具有清晰的图标，告知用户哪些塑料可以回收。胶囊具有创新的系统，压缩内容到一个袋子，然后可以收集路边。胶囊功能易于阅读，大图标显示哪些材料适合回收，如果用户不确定，我们已经添加了一个易于使用的QR码和网站URL，可以链接到一个简单的网页解释更详细，或者提供更多的合适材料的例子来收集。该设计还具有两个透明的窗口，收集器的两侧，以表明如何充分的单位。LUMA一直专注于保持部分，尽可能降低复杂性，以保持单价低于3英镑，使其负担得起。胶囊由回收塑料制成，在使用寿命结束时，整个产品也可以回收。

LUMA-iD proposes a simple yet effective solution to collect flexible household plastic waste. We have designed a concept (that needs further development) of a household friendly, easy to use and aesthetically pleasing capsule that compresses flexible plastic by 400% without any complicated moving parts.The capsule can be stored on the tabletop, mounted inside a cupboard, fixed to a door, or kept outside and features clear iconography that informs the user which plastics can be recycled.The capsule features an innovative system to empty the compressed contents into a bag which can then be collected curbside.The capsule features easy to read, large icons to display which materials are suitable for recycling, if the user is unsure we have added an easy to use QR code and website URL which could be linked to a simple webpage explaining in more detail, or providing further examples of suitable materials to collect. The design also features two transparent windows either side of the collector to indicate how full the unit is.LUMA have focused on keeping the part and complexity down as much as possible, to keep the unit price below £3 to make it affordable.The capsule is made from recycled plastics and at end of life the entire product can also be recycled.
