Bad Vigaun Medical Centre – Littersharks in the gardens

Where public spaces and medical care intersect, proper waste management is critical. At the Bad Vigaun Medical Centre in Austria, the outdoor areas where staff take their breaks or visitors wait for their loved ones were generating so much waste that traditional litter bins could no longer cope.

Medo Borcilo, Head of Technology at the medical centre, found the ideal solution in the form of the Littershark, which reminded him not only of a great white shark, but also of its sleek design and wide opening.

In addition to its functional benefits for the medical facility, the litter bin’s high quality finish, durability and stylish, discreet appearance, which blends in seamlessly into the centre’s manicured gardens, were also key factors.

In places where people wait or take breaks, it’s not just rubbish that accumulates, but also ash.
With its built-in ashtray module, our Littershark devours all cigarette butts and falling ash.

This is particularly important for the Bad Vigaun Medical Centre, as the gardens are the only place where smoking is even permitted.

Special praise goes to the smart closure system, which makes the daily work of the cleaning staff even easier.

No wonder the seven Littersharks have become popular spots for visitors, staff and others to meet for a cig break.

Smokers are happy that they now have somewhere to put their tab ends and don’t have to take them away with them.
And the groundskeepers are equally pleased, as the Littersharks can be emptied quickly and with minimum effort.

Special praise goes to the smart closure system, which makes the daily work of the cleaning staff even easier.
