Our products

Returns made convenient.

Three compact RVMs built for convenience stores, all connected by Maas Sync – so you can see every return in real time and what’s behind the numbers.

Machines

The Rev Loop range

Three RVMs for different retail needs – from the semi-automatic Rev Loop S, through the all-rounder Rev Loop, to the higher-capacity, outdoor-ready Rev Loop One. Each model varies in footprint, container capacity and daily return volumes.

Software

Maas Sync

One platform to manage returns, monitor machine performance and turn collection data into actionable insights. Built-in marketing tools make it easy to run targeted campaigns and engage customers.

Our experience

Been there. Returned that.

We’ve taken convenience and franchise stores through the launch of a deposit return scheme and the year that followed – quiet first weeks, fast-growing volumes and everything in between. That experience is built into every machine and service we offer.

  • Rollout without disruption

    We take care of installation and staff training, so your stores are ready to take returns from day one.

  • Connected from day one

    Every machine links to the scheme administrator, voucher redemption at your tills and your own systems.

  • Returns that drive sales

    Use the machine screen to promote offers – including your own-label products – to customers as they return.

  • Support you can count on

    Clear service packages, remote diagnostics and UK service being set up ahead of launch.

Security

We spot the difference before it costs you.

Our RVMs have several layers of security built in. Cameras, weight sensors and AI recognition check the shape, label, material and weight of every container, catch fake labels and reused barcodes, and keep an image of every transaction.

  • 0.08%false acceptance rate
  • 30.5M+verified scans

Let’s talk

FAQ

Your questions, answered.

Which machine is right for my stores?

It depends mainly on daily return volumes and the space available. As a guide, Rev Loop S is designed for kiosks and small stores with low return volumes, and Rev Loop suits small and medium-sized stores. Rev Loop One works in both smaller and larger stores with higher return volumes, and can stand inside or in front of the store. You can mix all three across your estate, and we’ll help you match each store to the right machine.

Can a machine stand outside the store?

Rev Loop One can. It’s built for indoor and outdoor use, works in temperatures from -25°C to +40°C and can take returns even when the store is closed – so returns don’t take up selling space. Rev Loop S and Rev Loop are designed for indoor use.

Which containers do the machines accept?

Our machines accept PET plastic bottles and aluminium cans that carry the scheme logo. Each container is checked against its product profile, so anything outside the scheme is turned away.

What does a machine need on site?

A power supply, an internet connection and enough floor space: 2.8 sq ft for Rev Loop S, 4.4 sq ft for Rev Loop and 6.7 sq ft for Rev Loop One.

How much staff time does a machine need?

A few minutes a day, depending on return volumes. When the bin is full, the machine alerts staff, who replace the bag following the scheme operator’s procedure. The belts need a quick wipe now and then, using a cleaning mode on the screen.

How does Maas Sync connect to the scheme and my tills?

Maas Sync connects each machine to the scheme operator, keeps its product database up to date and links vouchers to your tills, so staff simply scan them at checkout. It can also share data with your back-office systems.

Are the machines safe for shoppers to use?

Our machines are designed with shoppers’ safety in mind. Rev Loop and Rev Loop One have built-in hand detection, so they stop automatically if a hand is detected in the opening, and customers have no access to the compaction unit.

What happens when a container is rejected?

The screen tells the customer why – for example, that the container’s weight doesn’t match, which can happen when there’s liquid left inside. Every rejection is logged in Maas Sync, so you can see what’s being turned away and why.
