Blue Wave

Waste Bins that will change the world of waste; Waste Bins Made Better.

It’s time for product innovation and environmental impact to meet the Waste Bin. Introducing: Blue Wave, powered by Busch Systems. These carefully curated containers have been thoughtfully researched, designed, and tested to be better than your traditional garbage bin. Each bin has been created through Craig’s vision of waste bins re-invented. You choose what’s important to you; We have a bin that will make that happen!

For us, it’s about more than just garbage collection. We’ve taken what’s currently in the market and made it better.

Our Passion Is To Build Better Solutions For People And The Planet

Since 1987, Craig Busch has been designing, re-inventing, and improving the recycling industry. What started as a mission to create a lighter, durable, and more effective recycling bin has become a successful journey to support everyone who cares about waste diversion with leading-edge products and services that maximize the quantity and quality of their recycling program. While the innovation in recycling continues to this day, Craig has passionately embarked on a mission to change the world of waste collection with a few simple questions – why can’t waste bins be better for the environment and better for the people who service them?

What Makes These Bins Better?

At Busch Systems, innovation starts with purpose. Every Blue Wave bin is built to go beyond waste collection — it’s a reflection of our commitment to environmental progress, smarter design, and global responsibility. From reducing carbon impact and improving functionality to supporting ethical initiatives that protect our oceans and empower communities, each bin embodies a better way forward for people and the planet.

Superior Functionality

Through market research and thoughtful design, each Blue Wave product is designed to function better than a traditional waste bin. Whether that’s through ergonomic design for easy maintenance and collection; thoughtful design of rain hoods and front doors; longevity to its core, with the longest possible lifecycle and least amount of surface maintenance; Communication, and customization abilities that are truly endless.

More Environmental

Whether it’s because their carbon footprint is less than the traditional waste bin, or it’s made from recycled materials. Each of these containers meets the standard of being a more environmentally friendly option than is currently on the market and all are fully recyclable at the end of life.

Social Responsibility

Would anything be truly Busch Systems if we didn’t do our best to make the biggest impact possible?! With this initiative, we have partnered with Plastic Bank.
