B2B CONNECT
From fixed emptying schedules to actual needs
With wireless level measurement and B2B Connect, you receive continuous information about fill levels, volume and emptying in your recycling rooms. See how the containers are actually used over time and adapt emptying, sizing and operations to actual needs.

WHY DEMAND-BASED
Instead of relying solely on fixed emptying intervals, you create a fact-based foundation for adapting operations to actual needs.
Identify unnecessary emptying, make better use of container capacity and create a basis for more efficient emptying intervals.
Fewer unnecessary emptying operations can mean fewer transports and better use of resources.
Identify containers at risk of becoming full before the next scheduled emptying. Fewer overflowing containers contribute to cleaner, better-functioning recycling rooms for residents.
Track actual needs over time and use the history to evaluate emptying intervals, number of containers and capacity.
HOW IT WORKS
B2B Connect combines wireless level sensors with a platform for monitoring, history, alerts and analysis.
MEASURE → COLLECT → ANALYSE → ACT
1
Battery-powered level sensors continuously measure the fill level in each waste container using laser-based Time-of-Flight technology (ToF).
2
Each sensor has its own NB-IoT connection and sends measurement data directly to B2B Connect via the mobile network. No separate gateway or connection to the property's network is required.
3
B2B Connect displays current fill level, estimated volume, historical development, emptying operations, positions and any alerts.
4
Information from multiple containers can be compiled by recycling room and area. Dashboards and AI insights make it possible to track developments and identify patterns and deviations.
5
The history provides a fact-based foundation for evaluating emptying intervals and adapting operations to actual needs.
62 %
The sensor measures the distance to the contents. The distance becomes fill level and estimated volume in B2B Connect.
WIRELESS LEVEL MEASUREMENT
The battery-powered level sensor is installed in the waste container and measures the distance to the contents using laser-based ToF technology. It communicates directly via NB-IoT, making installation simple even in recycling rooms without a network or other technical infrastructure.
Laser-based ToF level measurement
Dedicated NB-IoT connectivity
Built-in GNSS positioning (GPS)
IP67-rated enclosure
No local gateway required
Ready on delivery. The sensors are configured and added to B2B Connect before delivery. Each sensor is linked to the correct container, recycling room and area in the platform.
THREE LEVELS
Structure information across multiple levels and drill down to unit level when more detailed information is needed.
LEVEL 1
Current fill level
Estimated volume in litres
Historical fill-level development
Recorded emptying operations
Alerts and thresholds
Position and map view
LEVEL 2
Information from multiple containers is combined into a shared view of the recycling room.
Combined fill level and volume
Fill-level development over time
Emptying history
Current emptying requirement
Alerts and deviations
LEVEL 3
Multiple recycling rooms are grouped and compared to provide an overall view of operations.
Compare recycling rooms and areas
Identify differences in fill rate
Track development over time
Identify recurring deviations
Create a basis for planning and follow-up
PERSONALISED DASHBOARDS
In B2B Connect, users create their own dashboards based on the information that is relevant to them. Views can be built using current measurement data, charts, maps, alerts, tables and summaries.
Monitors current levels and alerts.
Focuses on history, trends and comparisons between recycling rooms.
Fill level and volume per container
Combined status per recycling room or waste fraction
Map positions
Completed emptying operations
Current alerts and deviations
Overall emptying requirement
AI INSIGHTS
As historical data builds up, the information becomes significantly more valuable than simply a current level in a container. B2B Connect can use AI to analyse and compile information from multiple containers, recycling rooms and areas.
Fill levels and volumes
Fill rate
Deviations
Differences between recycling rooms
Emptying needs and development over time
Historical measurement data can be used to analyse how alternative emptying intervals would have worked. For example, it is possible to evaluate:
What would have happened if the container had been emptied less often?
What fill level would have been reached before the next emptying?
Is there unnecessary capacity in the current emptying operations?
How full are the containers normally when they are emptied?
Is there a risk of overflowing containers?
What margin remains before full capacity is reached?
Do needs differ between different recycling rooms?
The history shows the actual needs for each location. This creates an ongoing, fact-based foundation for assessing which emptying intervals best correspond to actual needs.
VIRTUAL SENSOR – RESIDENT FEEDBACK VIA QR
Not all information about a waste room can be measured with a physical sensor. With a QR code in the waste room, residents can easily report problems, deviations or provide feedback directly from their mobile – without an app or login.
Overfilled bins
Waste on the floor or outside the bins
Need for cleaning
Bad odour
Broken equipment
Feedback and suggestions for improvement
Information from the virtual sensor can be used in two ways at the same time.
A report can be sent directly to the right recipient, so that problems requiring action quickly become a specific case.
Reports and feedback are collected over time. B2B Connect can compile recurring problems, feedback and patterns for each waste room or area into scheduled AI insights.
ECONOMY, ENVIRONMENT AND RESIDENTIAL ENVIRONMENT
Knowing when bins actually need to be emptied is not just about waste management. The information can contribute to better decisions across several parts of the operation.
Bins that are regularly emptied with substantial spare capacity provide a basis for evaluating emptying intervals and costs. Data can also show whether the number and size of bins correspond to actual needs.
When unnecessary emptying can be avoided, there is an opportunity to reduce the number of transports and use vehicles and other resources more efficiently. Demand-based management combines economic efficiency with reduced environmental impact.
Overfilled bins can quickly create problems with waste around the containers. Detecting unusual fill levels and changing needs earlier creates better conditions for clean, well-functioning waste rooms.
Smarter waste management does not have to be a compromise – the same data can create value for the economy, the environment and residents.
PART OF CONNECTED PROPERTY OPERATIONS
B2B Connect is not limited to level measurement or waste management. The platform collects sensors, measurement data and technical systems from several parts of property operations. Level monitoring in waste rooms can become part of broader data-driven property operations, without each new use case requiring its own separate platform.
Temperature and humidity
Indoor climate and CO₂
Water leaks and moisture
Energy and consumption
Temperature in technical spaces
Presence and people counting
Levels and other technical measurements
PRICES
The pricing model makes it possible to start with a smaller pilot while gaining a clear picture of the cost of a future rollout to more bins, waste rooms and areas.
