Clever Bins Limited was UK company that provided solar-powered street litter bin that displayed digital outdoor advertising.
The 'Clever Bins' came with A2 sized display panels that were lit up by directional LED beams. The panels came with military standard Riot shielding. Some models of the bin could broadcast messages to nearby mobile devices.
The bins used solar power that, even in cloudy conditions, could charge the units for up to 7 hours of illumination. The level of illumination was regulated depending on the power available.
In August 2009, Sachiti failed to find an investor on the BBCs TV show Dragons' Den.
Clever Bins was partnered with Keep Britain Tidy in July 2010. on a study for which Keep Britain tidy will release the results later in 2011.
Clever Bins had a trial with the London Borough of Hammersmith & Fulham.
Clever Bins could also be found outside near London's tube stations, Lakeside Shopping Centre, Manchester,Birmingham City, Tower Bridge London, and locations in Singapore,Hong Hong, Maldives and Italy.
