Collecting Waste Can and Plastic Bottle Project and Sales Promoting Project

Way of Collecting waste can and plastic bottle

1) Insert waste cans and plastic bottles into collecting machine.

2) Machine will print recycled points on receipt in proportion to the quantity of waste cans and plastic bottles that customer has been brought.

3) You can get a point for one waste can or plastic bottles, and if you saved 200 points, you can change it into a sheet of stamps (Bremenchips).

4) Paste this sheet of stamps on the mounting paper for the Bremenchip, and collect 7 completed mounting papers (worth 700 yen). You can use those sheets as a 500 yen gift certificate.

5) With the profit of these 200 yen, we appropriate the money to the electric generation of the collecting machine and its operational costs.

6) The capital of 0.5 yen per waste can or plastic bottle that has been returned to customers is basically appropriated to the profit of selling collected wastes. If we converted those wastes with weight, it will be troublesome, so we pleased the manufacturer to pay the total quantities of the wastes times 0.5 yen automatically into our bank. Total quantity of the wastes is calculated with the counter which is built in the collecting machine.
