How can a bench stand out in a public space? Nothing catches the eye quite like the contrast between blocq solar’s large, striking block top and its sharp, pointed legs. In place of the usual wood, solar panels protected by safety glass cover the seat. The solar panels power USB sockets for charging mobile devices and also a wireless charging point. This technological gem makes no aesthetic sacrifices to achieve its functionality either; it maintains excellent design and is fully compatible with other pieces of street furniture. More

Victor Stanley Relay™
Most current waste and recycling collection systems follow a static model, where containers are picked up regardless of their content or fill level.
This inefficiency has an impact on monetary, environmental, and community costs, with some containers overfilling before they are collected, while others sit empty, yet are picked up anyway. There wasn’t a better way, so we created one.
Victor Stanley Relay™ modernizes this system by monitoring the fill levels and weights of all containers, so that they can be collected at the optimal time. This service saves on collection expenses and ensures resources are allocated efficiently, while reducing fuel costs, carbon footprints, and unsightly overflowing waste.
