Customer magazine 2/2011 Molok Ltd 20 years pages 10-11 Font-Romeu, France installs over 500 MolokDomino™ containers pages 12-13 POLAND receives its first Molok® containers page 14 1 Expansions and training M olok expands its operations again, with the relocation of all product development activities and MolokDomino manufacturing to the Mojama hall, adjacent to our Nokia premises. MolokDomino production will commence in the new premises as scheduled in September this year. The new Mojama hall is also the location of Molok new training center. The new premises were inaugurated during the company’s 20th anniversary celebration, when a number of international distributors were present to acquire the latest Molok knowledge. New efforts will focus on improved training together with product development. Molok is accelerating the pace of launching more versatile product offerings and strengthening the comprehensive range of both product lines. At the same time, we are investing in the local manufacture of MolokDomino products in the export market. Fall of 2010 saw the start of concrete container element production in Denmark followed by Spain in May 2011, described in more detail in this issue. Domestic deliveries as well as our export markets have grown steadily during the current year. We predict the positive trend to continue, with already particularly significant developments in, for example, the Canadian market as well as France. Jukka Blom Managing director A successful MolokDomino™ localization in According to the Molok global business plan, MolokDomino concrete molded elements will be manufactured locally whenever feasible. In May 2011, another successful production line of the MolokDomino containers was started in Spain by Prefabricado Agustin. S ituated in Monzón, the mountainous Northern part of Spain, Prefabricado San Agustin can easily serve both Spanish and French markets. In fact, the first major order of MolokDomino containers was manufactured for the municipality of Font Romeu in Southern France. Good market prospects in Spain Mr Álvaro Castán, Technical Director of Prefabricado Agustin, believes that Molok deep collection system is very well suited to the Spanish waste collection markets. “Spain has warm weather and putting the refuse in an underground container like MolokDomino avoids unpleasant odors. Also, the system is less noisy than the traditional garbage bins. Lots of homes in Spain sleep with open windows in summer and as the waste collection is made at night it can be annoying.” “Molok is clearly the best system for efficient recycling, which is developing rapidly in Spain. In many places, tourism fuels our economy and we have to look after the tidiness of our waste collection system. We have a beautiful heritage that we have to maintain,” Álvaro Castán adds. Smooth production start-up MOLOK - Deep Collection News 1/2011 Publisher: Molok Oy Editor in Chief: Katri Savijärvi Editor: Eero Hämäläinen Layout: Mainostoimisto Jyske Oy Printing: Eräsalon Kirjapaino Oy 2 At the modern premises of Prefabricados Agustin, the production start-up of MolokDomino containers was quite smooth. Mr Mika Kiikkinen came from the Molok headquarters in Finland to the factory to review the local production and spent a few days showing how to make the modules. “After the training, everything has gone well and we feel quite confident to continue the production of high quality MolokDomino containers in the future, serving both Spanish and French markets,” believes Álvaro Castán. The first, high quality concrete MolokDomino produced in Spain, waiting for transportation. 3 Opening the Chinese market The efficiency of deep collection is demonstrated in China with pilot projects. Molok Ltd’s distributor Cargotec has doubled the number of Molok containers in China every year and is also confident of future success in this giant marketplace. waste collection and emptying system package, including containers and emptying vehicles fitted with the Hiab crane. Developing and manufacturing this emptying truck took a long time. It first required an approval from the national government and after that, building of a joint venture for manufacturing, in addition to driving trials of up to 2000 kilometers. - But the investment has paid off. We are now the only company to have the license for the Special Purposes Vehicle for emptying in China, which clearly gives us a competitive advantage, Mr Guanyan notes. with Molok® pilot projects An approved, specially designed emptying vehicle gives Cargotec competitive advantage in the Chinese marketplace. T he cooperation between Molok and Cargotec started in China in 2005. The first reference was the Olympic park built for the Beijing Olympic Games in 2008, where 28 containers were installed. - During the Olympic games, Molok containers were operated as transport stations, where up to a thousand small garbage bins were emptied. Both dry and wet waste was collected using Molok containers with good results, says Ren Guangyan, Deputy Director of Cargotec, based in Shanghai. Target to get pilot in every province 4 Cargotech’s Molok representatives Ren Guangyan (right) and Ding Wei at Cargotec premises in Shanghai. Cargotec strives to install at least one Molok pilot project in every province in China. - You can get an idea of the physical distances with one pilot made to the Northern Province. Getting there from Shanghai requires first a four hour flight and then a five hour drive, Mr Guanyan says. - Progress in Chinese sales proceeds gradually. First, you have to convince the organizations and state officials of the system benefits, after that you can start selling to the end customers,” he adds. A good example comes from an oil city in Northern China. First, the municipality bought just two Molok containers to test. After that, they ordered 40 more, then another 60, and now plan to buy 100 containers during 2011, making deep collection the common waste collection system in the city. Special emptying vehicle developed Cargotec is marketing in China not just Molok containers but the total Doubling the Molok population every year is the target Today, Cargotec has 7 operational pilot projects in different areas of China. They include, for example; orders to the city of Kelamayi, parks in the Yellow Mountain area, Shenzen, and Tianjin areas. Another pilot will be built in the city centre of Shanghai. With hundreds of Molok containers now in operation, Cargotec plans to double the numbers every year. The main areas where Molok containers are being marketed are the prosperous cities along the Yangtze river. China plans to introduce separated collection of bio waste to the big cities with a population of 1,3 billion inhabitants during 2011-2015. Of all waste collected, the amount of bio waste is up to 60%. - This provides another challenge for Molok, because the company has knowhow and products to form an efficient bio waste collection system, stresses Ren Guangyan. 5 Saint-Ubalde, Quebec adopts THE MOLOK® SYSTEM On June 22, 2011, members of the press were invited to Saint-Ubalde, Quebec, Canada, to see a new depot of Molok containers up close. The depot is a pilot project for the Municipality of Saint-Ubalde, which is a rural municipality, home to five lakes and about 1,500 residents. T he depot is located at the entryway to the cottages surrounding Lac Perreault. There are 66 households and cottages in the area that are using the Molok containers. Prior to the Molok system being installed, there were three dumpsters for waste and eight roll carts for recyclables. “Old containers are ugly and unhealthy and they don’t help people to sort correctly and they throw wrong things like metals, appliances, etc…” explains the mayor of Saint-Ubalde Municipality, Pierre Saint-Germain, “so we decided to go ahead with this project and to try Molok for a year. If we are satisfied, we will equip the 4 other lake areas.” In May 2011, five Molok containers were installed, each with 5000 litre capacity. Three are to collect waste and two are for recyclables. The containers are installed two-thirds underground, offering a cleaner and more efficient system, with virtually no odours. This is the first time in Quebec that Molok containers have been used as a A emptying demonstration going on at Saint Ubalde, Canada. Molok® exhibits at the WasteTech 2011 fair in Moscow ”WasteTech 2011” is the Russian equivalent of the German IFAT exhibition. The exhibition enables Russian and foreign companies to demonstrate their achievements as well as new ideas, technologies and solutions in waste management. Attendees included representatives of Russian organizations and foreign visitors. T his year, PetroWaste has participated in three trade fairs. A joint exhibition stand was organized together with Molok to present different sizes of deep collection containers, CityScape bins, locking and other possibilities for hazardous waste collection as well as trim options. Molok and PetroWaste videos illustrated the most important benefits of deep collection, maintenance and emptying. Thus, the ease of use, practicality and quality of Molok were depot in a rural setting. Residents will appreciate having access 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, to a nearby depot that is clean and aesthetic. The depot system should also motivate people to sort their waste properly, improving recycling rates. Waste Containers highlighted for visitors. During the exhibition, it became clear that the deep collection method is already familiar to many Russian housing and municipal service enterprises, both in the state and private sector. Russian companies manufacturing underground waste containers also exhibited at the fair. The challenge in the market is that quality takes second place to cost. On the positive side, today in Russia the word Molok has become a colloquial name for all deep collection methods. In the last exhibition, vandalism was still seen as a major problem for waste management in Russia. A fire in the container destroys most of the components. For this reason, the concrete MolokDomino aroused much interest. From the WasteTech fair, could be drawn the clear conclusion that in Russia, Molok products have a very high potential, as long as the challenges of cost, sales organization and local manufacturing are met. The pilot project is a collaboration between Équipements Omnibac Inc., Gaudreau Environnement Inc., Saint-Ubalde Municipality, Residual Materials Management Regional Authority of Portneuf and Services Matrec Inc.

As a part of the Baltic Sea Action Group projects, Molok containers serve in waste collection near the famous white bridge over the Neris River. Paper, plastic materials and glass are being collected for recycling with the MolokDomino station. for MolokDomino™ in Vilnius, Lithuania Vice-mayor Romas Adomavicius opening officially the first MolokDomino containers in Vilnius, Lithuania. T he deep collection system is used to collect and recycle paper, plastic materials and glass. In addition to the first units, there are ongoing plans to install more MolokDomino containers in the old medieval city centre. “The documentation for a waste collection system takes a long time in Vilnius, because everything built inside the old town requires special permission. The waste collection system has to be in line with the historical atmosphere of the city,” says Martynas Surplys, Managing director of Molok distributor JSC “Amber infra” in Lithuania. Both square shaped MolokDomino containers and the original round Molok containers are planned for Vilnius. 8 Other cities to follow In addition to Vilnius, “Amber infra” is presently offering deep collection systems to several Lithuanian cities, like Radviliskis, Klaipeda, Visaginas, Trakai and Utena. - We see Molok deep collection system’s possibilities in Lithuania to be very good. The waste collection system needs renovation in most parts of the country and deep collection is both a tidy and an economic solution, believes Martynas Surplys. Besides marketing the new containers, the distributor “Amber infra” actively sells maintenance and spare parts services in Lithuania. 9 20 years of success In 20 years, Molok deep collection has evolved from an unconventional idea into a global success story. The familiar roadside deep collection container today looks after the waste management of up to 10 million people on six different continents. Two decades of Molok history were celebrated on 14 April 2011. - Deep collection is proof of the saying that good inventions are simple. The vertical container, where new waste compacts old, offers superior capacity, reduced emptying frequency as well as being easy to use and clean,” says Veikko Salli, inventor and Molok Ltd’s founder, in summing up the advantages. From roadsides to residential areas Molok Ltd’s first customer was the Finnish road and water works authority, which ordered a significant number of Molok containers specifically for use in roadside rest areas. Use of the containers was tested carefully and the positive results opened up wider markets to the company. The beginning of the 1990s saw an experiment in waste management with advanced Molok containers for about 10 000 inhabitants of the Varissuo residential area in Turku. The area was served with a total of 200 containers. Veikko Salli and Terttu Marttila Europe and the Far East Already quite early, Molok began actively marketing its products for export throughout Europe. The company quickly developed a comprehensive network of representatives, growing at the same time into a true exporting company. Molok containers soon became a familiar sight in Swiss Alpine villages, in Germany and France on motorways and in parks, as well as Portugal’s large residential apartment areas. At the same time, Molok conquered new areas, such as parks, tourist attractions and commercial recycling. In addition to Europe, Molok expanded its export markets worldwide. Activities got under way in for instance, Canada, the USA, Australia, New Zealand and the Middle East. Board chairperson Marja Hillis. In-house manufacturing and product development After the turn of the millennium, Molok made an important decision to concentrate all its operations to the same premises in Nokia. More than 5,000 square meters of factory and office facilities were built and investments in modern rotational molding machines were made. Today, the entire production is almost pollution-free with natural gas. - Training and customer service will continue to grow significantly in Molok Ltd’s operations. At the heart will continue to be the familiar and easy to use Molok,” says the company’s managing director, Jukka Blom.

It is one of the oldest ski resorts in France and, as one of the sunniest places in the country, a center of solar power research. T he commune has also selected an environmentalfriendly waste collection system. In the near future, over 400 MolokDomino deep collection containers will be installed, covering the whole community and two neighboring villages. “We will build a total of more than 200 waste gathering locations over the whole region using MolokDomino containers installed for both recycling and municipal waste collection,” says Daniel Gauthier, President of Sirom, the community’s waste collection organization. Waste, glass, plastic and cardboard Each gathering location will comprise at least one part for waste and one for plastic and small cartons. In addition, at about 120 locations, a half of the MolokDomino containers will be dedicated to glass and at 30 locations, specially developed 5 m3 MolokDomino containers will be dedicated to folded cardboard boxes. Deep collection systems are best because they can withstand the snowfalls in winter and permit a large increase in storage volume, which is of paramount importance in a tourist zone with widely variable population (from 2,500 inhabitants out of season up to 30,000 during peak periods). “MolokDomino containers are best because their square section allows space saving and they can be shared for storing two types of waste. In addition, special containers were developed for cardboard boxes. MolokDomino containers can be easily set in a slope, which is very useful in the mountains,” Daniel Gauthier notes Font Romeu is a village located in the French-Catalan part of the Pyrenees, 200 km from Toulouse and 200 km from Barcelona, 100 km from Perpignan and the Mediterranean Sea and 60 km from Andorra.

With an average altitude of 1800 meters, the village is located on the southern side of a high plain (altiplano) of mean altitude 1200 meters and benefits from a microclimate due to both the altiplano and Mediterranean Sea influences. It is therefore one of the sunniest areas in France, hosting the biggest solar furnace in the world as well as a world leading scientific research center on solar energy. It also hosts a very famous center for sports training at altitude with more they can also be concealed than 100 Olympic medalists training with a wall covering of the same there over the last 40 years.

Headed by Rudi Joris, Molok Ltd’s local distributor Molok Polska sp.z.o.o is proceeding with Molok sales on several frontiers: from apartments to shopping centers, highway builders, bus stops and municipalities. - The main challenge for waste collection in Poland is to develop it according to the European Union standards and laws. In fact, this requires a lot of work and Molok can really help Poland here, says Rudi Joris, Managing Director of Molok Ltd’s distributor. - We firmly believe that Poland is ready for Molok deep collecting system and therefore the business prospects are good, Joris adds. First Molok containers to apartment houses The first Molok containers in Poland have already been installed to serve the residents of apartment houses in the city of Poznán. In this application, waste, plastic and paper are being collected with 5000 litre containers and glass with 3000 litre Molok containers. Presently, Lodz is also testing CityScape bins in the train, bus and tram stops in the city area. Likewise a new shopping center under construction, Suchy Las, has now chosen Molok containers to be used as their waste collection system. Altogether 7 Molok containers will be installed during October. Now, Molok Polska sp.z.o.o expects the biggest contract with a Polish city, situated in the Northern part of the country, near Poznán. - We expect to deliver over 60 Molok containers to be installed during the fall to central positions in the city area, Rudi Joris says. Interest along new highways According to Joris, there is also a lot of interest among the highway contractors to use Molok containers. - We are bidding deep collection for the rest areas along a new motorway that will be built from the German border to the capital city Warsaw. T he establishment of the Nokia training center is confirmation of Molok Ltd’s investment in waste management education. The company’s goal is to develop deep collection further and become an international player in the environmental service sector. “The training center continues the focus on the importance of training in our operations. In the future, all of our employees, distributors and partners are able to increase their knowledge of deep collection and waste management,” promises Molok’s Managing Director Jukka Blom. The training center, located in Nokia’s Nosturikatu (Crane Street) will be the site of ongoing deep collection and waste management- related training modules: from product information to emptying demonstrations, safety and waste management practices.
