Winner
2010 savewater! Award for Innovation
This innovation award recognises FreshBins solution which hygienically cleans rubbish bins inside and out with as little as half a cup of water. The patented cleaning process sterilises and destroys all bacteria and pathogens without using toxic chemicals and filters all waste from the sanitised water which is recycled to clean the next bin. This process removes the need to dump contaminated water at the completion of each day, thus saving our most precious resource. WATER.
FreshBins has developed a truly hygienic, environmental sustainability solution.

2010 WorkSafe Victoria Awards
Manufacturing, Logistics and Agriculture
At the Annual Victorian WorkSafe awards on October 28 in front of 900 guests, FreshBins was awarded the 2010 WorkSafe Victoria award for the Best OH&S solution in Manufacturing, Logistics & Agriculture.
FreshBins is very proud of this award as it not only recognises the achievements FreshBins has made implementing its innovative bin cleaning technology, but has done so while ensuring that safety for the operator and the public have been foremost in the design of the Generation-3 bin cleaning solution.
This focus on safety is not new to FreshBins.
In 2008, FreshBins was recognised by WorkSafe for the safety focus of its Generation-2 Bin Cleaning systems. The 2010 award for the Generation-3 truck recognises that FreshBins has taken bin cleaning to a new level of safety focus.
FreshBins is proud to have been recognised twice in 3 years for our continued focus on safety.

Winner
2010 Green Business
This award was presented to FreshBins in 2010 for the environmental "Green" innovation that has been incorporated into the FreshBins Generation-3 bin cleaning unit. The award recognised the chemical-free, closed-loop bin cleaning and sanitising process which filters and separates the bin contaminants from the water that is continually recycled. All bin contaminants are collected for responsible managed disposal.
The award further recognized FreshBins ability to clean and sanitise a bin with less than a cup of water. This process stops the need for discharging bin cleaning chemicals and effluent into our storm-water drains, rivers and oceans where they have severe effects on our environment.
