Mercedes-Benz Stadium had the lofty goal to become the most sustainable sports venue in the world. The beautiful, uniquely designed stadium was scheduled to open in August 2017. Prior to their opening, the Mercedes-Benz team came to Max-R to partner together on a bin design that supported all of their sustainability and recycling initiatives.
When the City of Austin was looking to overhaul their waste & recycle bins, they turned to Max-R to create a cohesive, durable system throughout the city. We partnered with them to replace all of their concrete, rusted steel, and mismatched containers with our maintenance-free, recycled plastic round waste & recycle stations.
As a part of their partnership with the Beyond the Bag Initiative, Meijer came to Max-R looking for a customized solution to collect used recycled bags at their stores nationwide.
We worked with the University of Wisconsin-Madison to help them address an underutilized space on their campus. The outdoor area of UW’s Union South serves as a multi-purpose gathering space for students, faculty, and the community.
The University of Alberta was drawn to working with Max-R because of their ability to customize the bin. It was important to them that the color be throughout the entire waste stream, not just on a door or graphic. They needed a coordinated solution that housed rolling carts for large volume collection in residential dining and smaller capacity supporting bins.
Max-R worked with the Chicago Cubs to help them furnish some new renovations to their Left Field Porch. As part of their 1060 Project, the organization is committed to making investments to Wrigley Field and the surrounding neighborhood to “improve the guest experience and keep millions of Cubs fans coming back to Wrigley Field every year.”
The San Diego Padres came to Max-R with the desire to upgrade their concourse and outdoor recycling bins. To align their bins with their organization and its recycling program, the San Diego Padres took advantage of our logo application option.
Max-R partnered with the newly constructed US Bank Stadium to outfit their entire facility with waste and recycle bins.
Max-R worked closely with the Orange County Convention Center’s design team, facilities maintenance director and operations team to create a bin that would promote awareness of their off-site recycling efforts.
American Family partnered with Max-R initially at their Madison location and our bins have now become the standard, even expanding to other facilities with additional headerboard features and furniture after seeing great success. American Family also purchased furniture from Sister Bay Furniture – Max-R’s sister company – because of the sustainability focus.
Each purchase made from Max-R Lumber™ contributes to our goal of 1 BILLION milk jugs saved from landfills and oceans. Approximately 1,200 milk jugs are saved with each bin.
Since 2000, Max-R has been finding new ways to innovate and change the culture of recycling. As the innovator of the customized waste and recycle bin, our in-house engineering and design team created nine signature collections, developed thousands of options and configurations, and limitless ways to customize your ideal waste and recycle bin.
We believe that your waste and recycling program deserves more than just a blue bin. It deserves a thoughtfully planned collection of bins that are going to meet all of your functional and aesthetic needs as well as your brand standards and will foster the growth of your sustainability program.
