The TOMRA Throw&Go™ system offers flexibility and scalability for high-traffic venues: stadiums, festivals, and other similar applications where speed is paramount.
The TOMRA Throw&Go™ system is centered around the use of a reusable cup with an embedded RFID chip. This enables a deposit to be activated on the reusable cups when beverages are purchased and placed on the TOMRA barplate, and upon return at a Throw&Go machine, for the deposit to be automatically refunded to the same payment method (card, wristband) used to purchase the beverages.

Integrates with a venue's existing POS system, providing quick registration of payment data on each reusable cup used

Reduced cost for waste management and post-event cleanup. Complete accountability for every cup through full digital integration.
Full flexibility and scalable capabilities
Flexible return station options, adapted to the return volume. Different return stations can be deployed in one venue depending also on the preferred logistics behind the scenes.
