UV Care Zero Waste Smart Eco Bin

The future is worth caring for...and changing for...

UV Care's commitment to turn every space into  a cleaner place has also been our drive to help lessen the earth's waste. 

From providing chemical-free tools in cleaning your space, we not bring a solution that just takes a press of a button to turn food waste into zero waste.

With food waste producing tons of greenhouse gases and methane gas released by food waste at landfills, it is one of the major contributors to climate change. 

But we can battle this destructive change by starting to choose zero. 

Reduce. Reuse. Repeat! That simple choice to do one's part is the begining of a big difference.

 For Cleaning of Compost

1. Plug in unit to start (220V)
   *One beep sound will be heard and all indicator lights (Power, Dry, Grind, Cool, UV, Clean) will quickly light up for one (1) second

2. POWER and CLEAN buttons will remain lit for fifteen (15) seconds in STANDBY mode to give users ample time to select between POWER or CLEAN function.
3. Press the “CLEAN” button until you hear the beep and the POWER button switches off. CLEAN and UV indicator lights will turn on. UV indicator light will remain blinking during the process.
4. When cleaning is finished, the unit will sound off with five (5) beeps and the CLEAN indicator lamp will blink five (5) times.
5. Then, the unit will automatically switch to STORAGE mode.

 For Storage

1. After composting or cleaning, the unit will automatically proceed to “STORAGE” mode. While in Storage Mode, the unit’s fan is still running and the UV-C lamp is still turned on.
2. Stir the compost intermittently to prevent it from rotting.
3. The UV button will remain blinking when unit is in Storage Mode 

 
1. Dry

Reduces food waste volume by 90% of its original volume, removes foul odors and reduces methane production.

2. Grind

Once the food waste has been reduced in size, the process further breaks down food waste into small, powder-like particles which can be easily mixed in with soil to release nutrients upon immediate application of the by-product.

3. Cool

This process returns the unit and contents to room temperature, for safe handling. This also continues the aeration and dehumidifying processes.

4. UV-C Sterilize

Eliminates harmful food pathogens such as Salmonella, Escherichia coli (E. Coli) and Listeria monocytogenes

5. Clean

Helps get rid of remaining particles that are stuck in the bucket. It emits heat to dry up excess oils and uses UV to eliminate harmful pathogens.
