Semi-underground System GeoTainer® Model GTV

... uniquely diverse

Salient Characteristics

The Model GTV is a similar construction to the Model GTU and works in exactly the same way. A galvanized collection container is placed in a concrete outer - part of which is below ground level.

The main difference is the shape: it's square - a refreshingly new appearance! The visible section of the concrete outer above ground level can be given a finish that blends in with the immediate surroundings - this can be a particular colour, wooden planking or perforated steel plate.
