4. The Smart Bunker gets HETAS Approved

   November 8, 2021 2:58 pm Comments Off on The Smart Bunker gets HETAS Approved

   Posted on October 27, 2021 by Alun

   SmartBunker is the latest innovative product to gain HETAS Approval.

   

   Founder of Greenans Products Limited, Niall Greenan designed the smart bunker to help his Mother, who suffers from arthritis, to fill a coal bucket from her coal storage bunker. Niall explains”

   When the coal bunker was full, it was difficult to shovel coal out due to the weight from above. When it was empty it was difficult to gather coals which were scattered or had accumulated at the back of the bunker. Coming home from work and going to my mothers and filling couple of buckets of coal and setting them beside the fire, I noticed she was lifting lumps of coal out with her hands and placing coal into the fire, I asked why,she replied there was to much in the bucket and it was to heavy to lift. I studied the ergonomics involved and the smart bunker was born. Where you placed the bucket under the discharge point, pulled the handle with minimal effort and fill the bucket to the required amount you can carry. Mum was pleased as she could do this by herself, by pulling the handle filling a wee bit into the bucket job done and no shovel required.

   The company’s first product was The SmartBunker, an innovative storage bunker with a spring-loaded side lever which releases stacked product at the bottom of the container, where, for example, a bucket can be placed instead of having to use a shovel or scoop. 

   

   The Smart Bunker is made from medium density UV resistant polyethylene, is waterproof and cannot rust or rot this keeps the chosen fuel dry. The product promotes ease of dispensing and refilling removing the need for a shovel and single use bags. As a result this reduces bending and lifting, saving wear and tear on joints and allows the reuse of bags. Suitable for indoor or outdoor use.

   A range of fuels can be stored using The SmartBunker, including Wood Pellets , Smaller regular shaped “egg” type coals such as Smokeless fuels, Anthracite – Small Nuts, Anthracite Beans, Anthracite Grains, Welsh Anthracite BEANS, Phurnacite, Glovoids, Excel,  Supacite, Ancit , Extracite, Taybrite, Coalite, Newflame plus, Maxibrite, Pureheat.https://www.youtube.com/embed/5aNx9lYwF0g?start=12&feature=oembed

7. The smart bunker makes it to the French Alps

   October 26, 2021 9:45 pm Comments Off on The smart bunker makes it to the French Alps

   Customer review says it all
   This has proved to be a fantastic piece of kit – in fact, an absolute gamechanger. I use my smart bunker in the French Alps where many of us use pellet stoves. I have two and the constant lugging and opening of bags of pellets is a pain, and frankly messy. With the bunker, however, it’s a doddle – just fill up once a week and then you’re good to go. The height is easy to lift the pellets bags into and one quick slash with a knife or scissors and they are in the hopper. MIne holds at least a dozen bags and thereafter the mechanism is easy to control the flow. Another issue with using individual bags every day is that on opening them you dust everywhere – with the pellet hopper this is much reduced. My hopper is in a storage room, but am considering moving it outside as our local dealer will even deliver and fill it up weekly.Overall, I’m super impressed and delighted with my purchase.

   October 23, 2021 9:44 am Comments Off on This time 2 years ago, having high tea in Houses of Parliament

   Castlewellan business founder chose as ambassador for UK small businesses Niall Greenan from Castlewellan, founder of The Smart Bunker 22 October, 2019 THE founder of a business in Northern Ireland making an intelligent outdoor storage solution has been chosen to champion UK start-ups by the government-backed Start Up Loans programme.Niall Greenan from Castlewellan, founder of The Smart Bunker, is one of 10 business founders to be honoured at a reception at the Houses of Parliament to celebrate some of the UK’s most successful small businesses.He came up with the idea when he realised how difficult it was for his mother, who has arthritis, to fill a coal bucket from her traditional coal bin.The Smart Bunker is an easy-to-use dispensing system which releases coal with a simple pull of a lever to fill the bucket to the required amount that can be carried.He used a £5,000 Start Up Loans to develop the device, which has gone on to win several awards.He has also expanded The Smart Bunker to include safe storage of wood pellets, ice treatment and animal feed.The product has attracted attention for its sustainability credentials, providing a good alternative to the plastic bags usually used for agricultural storage.The delivery team also offers a service to refill the smart bunkers and recycle plastic bags to save them from landfill.The Start Up Loans programme provides pre-loan support to help applicants to develop a business plan; a fixed-interest loan of up to £25,000 to start or develop their business; as well as mentoring to support new loan recipients throughout the early stages of their business journey.Since 2012, the programme has delivered more than 67,000 loans to business owners across the UK amounting to more than £527 million – with £7.5 million going to small businesses in Northern Ireland.Niall Greenan said: “I’m delighted to be chosen as an ambassador for Start-Up Loans. My story shows that if you believe in your idea and have the tenacity and determination to succeed, then anything is possible.”Michael McQuillan, chief executive of Enterprise NI, said: “The Start Up Loans programme is important to Northern Irish businesses, providing start-up ventures access to supportive guidance and funding.“Niall is an exemplar ambassador. With the right guidance and timely support he has applied his innovative approach and enterprising spirit to propel the multi-award winning The Smart Bunker onto the world stage.”www.thesmartbunker.co.ukwww.thesmartbunker.ie@Vic_Strategic@TEAplusuk@DoctorSeaweed@littlelegend5@40StPauls@DaleICoach@FittaMamma@rosie_letts@UKConnectLtd @StartUpLoansUK #SULAmbassador @Business All Star @bizAllStars @StartUpLoansUK #SULAmbassador@All_IreSummit @BizAllStars@allirelandbusinessfoundation @all_iresummithttps://www.linkedin.com/company/all-ireland-business
