Infrastructure such as gross pollutant traps are known as 'end of pipe' solutions. Often expensive to install and maintain, they stop litter – including butts – from entering waterways through the storm water system.
While they serve a useful purpose as part of a broader strategic approach to the management of litter, they do not change people's behaviour (which is the purpose of Butt Free Solutions).

Especially popular for hospitality venues as cigarette butts are immediately extinguished when dropped in, preventing smoldering, which can cause discomfort to those in the vicinity.
StormWaterFilter
The StormWaterFilter (SWF) is designed to fit existing gutters to collect all types of street-side rubbish, preventing it from entering stormwater drains and waterways.
The SWF will trap items from cigarette butts to soft drink cans, bottles and general street litter. One SWF collects around 100kgs of gross pollutants per year.
Successfully trialed at Kogarah and Byron Bay Councils, the SWF allows mechanical street-sweepers to clean regularly, enables excess stormwater to flow out when necessary, allows for effective, clean recycling of stormwater and gives the gutter a polished finish.
An Australian invention made from quality stainless steel lasting for over 30 years, with no maintenance required. Simple to install, taking 15 minutes to fit with 3-5 stainless steel dynabolts.
