This is what a perfect waste separation system looks like at home
Waste separation plays a major role in Switzerland. Switzerland is one of the largest waste producers in the world. Every year, 80 to 90 million tons of waste are generated. The high standard of living means that each person produces 716 kilograms of municipal waste per year. Just over half is recycled. A waste separation system for the home makes this process easier.
A lot of waste is produced in Switzerland, but with a high recycling rate, a lot of it is returned to the cycle. However, this can only be achieved if the waste is properly separated. The recycling rate in Switzerland can only be so high because the Swiss separate their waste.
A few decades ago, separating waste was not even an issue. Everything ended up in a large bin and nothing had to be disposed of separately. However, this no longer meets today's sustainability standards. For this reason, there are now waste separation systems. With a waste separation system for your home, you can make disposal uncomplicated. Müllex offers waste separation systems for every home.
How do I find the right waste separation system for my home?
There are a few things to consider when looking for the perfect waste separation system for your home. You want to separate your waste and therefore need a waste separation system. So you don't opt for a mono-bin, but for a multiple-bin bin. Waste separation systems that can be integrated into the kitchen are particularly practical.
With waste bins that are stored in a kitchen cupboard, the rubbish is always well hidden. The waste separation system is mounted directly in the cupboard or drawer using rails. A big advantage is that the waste bin is always tightly closed and odors do not escape. With integrated waste separation systems, you do not need a separate storage area. This saves space in the kitchen.
If the waste bin is integrated into a cupboard or drawer, you don't have to touch it. To use the waste bin, simply open the cupboard or drawer. This way, you can use your waste separation system at home in a particularly hygienic way.
An important criterion for deciding on a particular waste separation system is the capacity. It is crucial for how much waste you can dispose of. If the waste bin is very small, you may have to empty it every evening. However, a waste bin that is too big can be inconvenient if you live alone. If the waste stays in the kitchen for too long, odors can develop.
Simply adapt your waste separation system at home to your needs with Müllex products. Müllex offers various models with containers of different sizes. Combine small and large containers as you wish.
Many of the models are suitable for installation in a cupboard or drawer.

In a modern home, it is inevitable that there will be waste. Kitchen waste, waste paper, glass, plastics, garbage and much more is thrown away every day. With a waste separation system from Müllex, the waste is separated every day in an environmentally friendly way. Müllex offers various solutions for this.
Depending on the model, Müllex waste separation systems can be installed under the sink, in a body with revolving doors or even free-standing in the room. A waste separation system consists of several containers. A specific type of waste can be disposed of in each container. Once you have found a system that suits you, disposal can be easily integrated into everyday life.
The BOXX-R waste separation system is also suitable for subsequent installation. Are you planning a kitchen renovation and your kitchen does not yet have a built-in waste separation system? BOXX-R is ideal for kitchen renovations because the components can be attached to an existing front.
The BOXX-R waste separation system offers the following advantages:
- Subsequent installation possible
- Additional containers, for example for compost or coffee capsules
- Storage drawer
- Additional storage space for rags and cleaning products possible
- Carries a weight of up to 100 kilograms
- Built-in damping ensures a soft closing of the drawer
What dimensions should the waste separation system for the home have?
.jpg?ts=1713186988?height=10&fit=crop,smart)
In addition to the capacity of the containers, the dimensions also play a role in choosing the right waste separation system for your home. Should the waste separation system fill the entire cupboard? Or would you like a little more space? Think in advance about what you want to store in your cupboard.
The dimensions for a waste separation system are often determined by the size of the cupboard or drawer. If the waste separation system is planned and installed later, you should take the dimensions of the cupboard into account. In any case, measure the cupboard or drawer in which the waste separation system is to be housed.
There are a few things to consider when measuring. Should the waste separation system be installed under the sink? Drain pipes are often found there, which also take up space and must be taken into account when measuring.
In many fitted kitchens, the cupboards and drawers have standard dimensions. As a rule, the waste separation systems are designed to fit these standard sizes. For example, the BOXX-R waste separation systems from Müllex fit carcass widths of 55 and 60 centimeters. The flexible X-LINE can be adapted to many different carcass widths. Müllex has the right solution for every kitchen.
What material should the waste separation system for the home have?

Another important decision criterion for a waste separation system is the material. Metal and plastic are the most commonly used materials for waste bins. The rails for a built-in waste bin are made of stainless steel or another metal.
Müllex's waste separation systems are made of plastic. Plastic offers the following advantages:
- Comparatively light weight
- Can be installed anywhere
- Easy to care for and clean
- Many sizes and shapes possible
- Stable and long-lasting
