Semi Underground containers
Semi-Underground containers combine large-volume waste storage with a compact footprint and a design that adapts naturally to its surroundings.
Designed to sit two-thirds below ground, Semi-Underground containers offer capacities of up to 5 m³ while keeping their footprint compact above the road surface.
Integrated into a prefabricated structure installed underground, they keep rainwater out, reduce noise and help control unpleasant odours.
The visible section can be finished with different materials and customised to complement the surrounding architecture, landscape or urban setting.
Semi-Underground containers can be equipped with different disposal openings, electronic access control, sensors and solutions for communicating with citizens.
More than a container, a smart waste collection system engineered for lasting performance. Steel and galvanised components, combined with a prefabricated C35/45 fibrated concrete structure, provide strength, durability and resistance in demanding outdoor environments. Every element is engineered to withstand daily use while keeping maintenance simple and performance consistent over time.
The modular concept creates elegant one- or two-line collection points, adapting to available space, capacity and disposal needs. A flexible solution designed to fit the city around it.
From the galvanized steel structure and internal mechanics to the stainless steel or galvanized disposal mouth and fibrated concrete tank, every component is engineered for a robust, long-lasting collection system.
The controlled bottom-opening system and F-90 anchoring device ensure stable, controlled emptying, while underground storage and the external structure provide added protection around the collection point.
A wide range of external coating options transforms the collection point into an integral part of its surroundings. From colors and finishes to customised materials, every surface can be selected to complement the architectural character of the setting, creating a collection point that feels considered rather than simply installed.
Produced in series and customizable to meet specific operational and visual requirements, the Semi-Underground container adapts to different waste streams and collection strategies.
Produced in state-of-the-art facilities through continuously optimized processes to reduce energy consumption and environmental impact, Semi-Underground containers are made of 100% infinitely recyclable steel
Multiple cameras, positioning sensors, and radar-based obstacle detection work together with intelligent work-area control to support fast, precise, and safe emptying and repositioning. Managed entirely from inside the vehicle, the Easy system also enables proactive monitoring, remote assistance, and continuous performance improvement.
Semi-Underground Containers are ready to connect with smart technologies including fill-level sensors, user identification devices, and waste recognition systems. The data collected can help plan collection routes more efficiently, optimize vehicle movements, and support a more responsive service - bringing smarter, data-driven waste management closer to the needs of tomorrow’s cities.
