Save cupboard and bin space - with motorised pushbutton operation

Motorised pushbutton operation links directly to the home power supply and applies steady mechanical force to collapse aluminium cans and small plastic bottles. Electrical actuation removes the need for manual leverage or foot pedals.

Fewer bulky cans means less frequent emptying of recycling bins and neater storage between collections. Frequent recyclers will notice reduced bag and bin usage over time.

Simple permanent placement - with wall or cabinet mounting

Mounting requires two screws and supports installation on a wall or inside a kitchen cabinet, while desktop placement is also possible for temporary use. The mounting points hold the unit steady during motorised operation.

A fixed location creates a tidy, always-ready station for processing cans, freeing up counter space. Installation takes only a few minutes with basic tools.

Copes with common drink containers - thanks to broad size compatibility

Compatible with aluminium cans from 6oz up to 16oz and accepts some plastic bottles within smaller ranges, with a maximum diameter of 3.3 inches and maximum height of 7.2 inches. Design accommodates soda, beer, juice and similar drink containers.

No need to sort many container types before crushing, as most household cans fit the crusher. Regular use simplifies recycling routines for mixed drink waste.
