The Smart Bunker get great writeup from #hetas after winning #polynext Award in Dubai 2025

The Smart Bunker nominated for Global Innovation Award

We’re delighted to share that The Smart Bunker, a HETAS Approved Product, has been nominated for an award at the PolyNext Conference & Awards 2025, taking place in Dubai 1-2 October.

The Smart Bunker’s intuitive design came from one simple goal: making fuel storage safer and easier. Its spring-loaded mechanism lets you get the coal or pellets you need with no effort at all – eliminating the need for shovelling. This means users with mobility issues no longer need to strain to heat their home, and the ergonomic design ensures accessibility and safety at all times.

Whether you use your Smart Bunker for storing solid fuel, salt, compost, or even animal feed, you don’t have to worry about back strains and heavy lifting. Further, the Smart Bunker allows for the reuse of delivery bags, helping you to reduce waste and increase your at-home sustainability efforts.

Recognition at an international event like PolyNext highlights the importance of practical, user-focused innovation in our industry – and demonstrates the quality of The Smart Bunker. We’re proud to see a HETAS Approved Product leading the way in combining functionality, safety, and environmental responsibility.

Greenans Products Ltd. The Smart Bunker Wins PolyNext Award 2025 for Excellence in Plastic Recycling & Sustainability
Innovation in Plastic Reuse and Upcycling

Dubai, October 2, 2025 – Greenans Products Ltd., the Northern Ireland–based company behind the innovative Smart Bunker™, has been honoured with the PolyNext Award 2025 for Excellence in Plastic Recycling & Sustainability – Innovation in Plastic Reuse and Upcycling.

The award was presented at the prestigious PolyNext Awards 2025, organised by Next Business Media and held in Dubai on October 1–2, celebrating global leaders driving sustainability and circular innovation in plastics.

A Recognition of Sustainable Innovation
This accolade acknowledges Greenans Products Ltd.’s pioneering efforts in sustainable design, recycled material use, and ergonomic functionality. The company’s flagship product, The Smart Bunker™, exemplifies how recycled plastics and human-centred innovation can create lasting environmental and social impact.

The Smart Bunker™ – A Simple Idea with Global Impact

Made from high-quality recycled plastic, The Smart Bunker™ reflects Greenans’ commitment to circular manufacturing. Its durable, modular design extends product lifespan, reduces landfill waste, and supports responsible resource management. By manufacturing locally in Northern Ireland, the company further minimises its carbon footprint.

Sustainability highlights:

100% recycled polymer construction
Long-lasting, repairable design
Reduced transport emissions through local production
Multi-use functionality for agricultural and domestic sectors
Endorsements and Industry Recognition
The Smart Bunker™ has earned endorsements from HETAS, Balcas Energy, and CAFRE, validating its environmental, ergonomic, and safety benefits. Featured on BBC’s Dragons’ Den, it has since become a trusted name across households, farms, and industries for its practical and eco-friendly design.

A Message from the Founder

The Smart Bunker getting ready for the awards in Dubai

All packed and ready LOL

From a Mother’s Need to Global Innovation: The Story Behind The Smart Bunker™

PolyNext Conference

Innovation often begins at home—and sometimes, it starts with a mother.

For Niall Greenan, founder of Greenans Products Limited, the inspiration for his groundbreaking product came from something deeply personal: watching his mother struggle. Living with arthritis, she found it increasingly difficult to lift heavy coal buckets or scoop from a traditional coal bunker. The coal was either too heavy to access when full or too scattered when nearly empty.

Determined to find a better way, Niall studied the ergonomics of coal storage and began experimenting with designs. The “lightbulb moment” came—quite literally—from a lampshade. In a stroke of genius, he inverted the lampshade, combined it with a road cone and spring-loaded mechanism, and created a frame that could dispense coal easily, without the need for a shovel.

This humble prototype evolved into The Smart Bunker™, a spring-loaded storage and dispensing system that allows users to release material from the bottom of the bunker into a bucket placed underneath. It requires minimal effort—just a simple pull of a handle.

What started as a simple act of care for his mother has grown into an award-winning, multifunctional storage solution used for:

Animal feed

Salt & grit

Compost

Wood pellets

Coal & slack

…and virtually any dry product.

Solving Real Problems with Real Innovation

The Smart Bunker isn’t just convenient—it’s life-changing for people with mobility issues or limited strength. Its design addresses critical Health and Safety concerns, making it a trusted solution across homes, farms, and industries.

Recognized on BBC’s Dragons’ Den and endorsed by organisations like HETAS, Balcas Energy, and CAFRE, the Smart Bunker has become a symbol of functional design that puts users first.

Why This Matters More Than Ever

In today’s world, where sustainability, ergonomics, and waste reduction are vital, products like The Smart Bunker showcase how simple, smart design can have an outsized impact.

Which brings us to a larger question: What are we doing to accelerate such innovations in material handling, circular economy, and sustainability?
