Inspirion Ventures Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of NOVA Chemicals Inc. and Rotek Management Ltd., have entered into an agreement for Inspirion to exclusively license Rotek’s polyethylene dumpster technology to manufacture, market and sell in the United States.
Rotek’s patented dumpster technology offers superior strength and durability and long life for use in a variety of waste applications. Rotek has manufactured and sold a broad product line of dumpsters, accessories and options for eight years primarily in Quebec and Ontario Canada with excellent performance.
Marketed under the COSMO® Container Solution brand as “COSMO Environmental Waste Containers”, Inspirion is leveraging this same technology in multiple applications and markets across the country. Manufacturing will ultimately be done through a network of exclusive manufacturing partners throughout the United States. Both Inspirion and Rotek are using NOVA Chemicals’ SURPASS® high performance rotational molding resins to manufacture the dumpster product line.

“We’ve evaluated a number of designs over the years and found Rotek’s technology to deliver the toughest, most durable and long lasting, large waste containers on the market,” said Alan Schrob, Director New Business Development for Inspirion Ventures Inc.
According to Benoit Larin, President of Rotek Plastic, “We are very pleased to be working with Inspirion Ventures to expand the use of our technology. Inspirion’s global marketing and sales capabilities combined with their vast manufacturing opportunities will allow our dumpsters to have a large presence in the United States.
