Vend-Sense

Here at NVCS we are actively looking at ways to reduce our energy use and subsequent carbon footprint. This has led to a product, which has been jointly developed with our partners within the Cover Group. This simple and very cost effective device gives us the opportunity to offer all our customers a way to reduce energy costs and carbon emissions.

Vend-Sense effectively switches off the vending machine when no motion is detected within its vicinity, within a pre-set timescale. On average this will eliminate 64% of the electricity that would be used by a machine in any given week, but the actual cost savings would be subject to your electricity tariff.

This figure is based on an average working week of 8am –8pm Monday to Friday.
In order to ensure that there are no disruptions to the service provided,
Vend-Sense can be set to switch off the machine or machines at varying timescales throughout the day or night. This timescale may be altered to suit the operational requirements of any business.

In addition, Vend-Sense can be retrofitted to any machine, whether new or old, and is simple to install.  It can either be fitted to the machine or wall mounted and the cost per unit is only £180.00 + VAT including fitting.
