The machine is on trial in Aldi's Mitchelstown store

in Cork, with plans to expand the trial to both
Mallow and Naas as well.

Each machine is capable of

collecting and storing up to
3,000 plastic bottles or 12,000
cans at any given time.

Not only are the machines useful for recycling,

they will also act as a fundraiser for charity.

Barnardos, a charity to provide aid to vulnerable

children, will receive a €1,000 donation on a
monthly basis during the trial for the machine.

“We’re delighted to kickstart our reverse vending

machine initiative today here in Mitchelstown with
a monthly donation of €1,000 going to our charity
partner Barnardos for the duration of the trial,"
said Colin Breslin, Regional Managing Director at
Aldi Ireland.

"We’ve decided to reinvent the idea of reverse

vending, enabling customers to give to a good
cause like Barnardos who do amazing work with
vulnerable children and families. It’s a simple
concept that makes recycling attractive to
shoppers, benefits the environment, and gives
back to society.”

Barnardos CEO Suzanne

Connolly welcomed the
donations from the initiative.

Man in his 60s dies “We are delighted to benefit

after road crash in from Aldi’s new recycling trial
Cork of a reverse vending
machine," she said.

"It will help make a real

difference to the vulnerable children and families
we work with, because childhood lasts a lifetime.

"Barnardos has been supporting children and

families for 60 years, and we know the impact
€1,000 per month generated from this inventive
scheme will have on the lives of children across
Ireland.”
