Jantex 87Ltr Pedal Bin Red Polypropylene Kitchen Waste

A large-capacity, colour-coded pedal bin from Jantex, constructed in polypropylene and finished in red. The foot-pedal mechanism keeps the lid closed when not in use and allows staff to open it without hand contact, which is a practical hygiene requirement in any food-handling environment rather than simply a convenience feature.

In a busy kitchen, a bin at this capacity can comfortably handle the waste volume generated across a full service period without needing constant attention. The close-fitting lid helps contain odours in enclosed kitchen spaces, and the red colour coding makes it straightforward to integrate into kitchens that operate a waste-stream or colour-segregation system.

Practical day-to-day advantages include:

• Hands-free pedal operation keeps waste disposal hygienic during service
• Red colour coding supports waste segregation and kitchen protocols
• Internal bin bag hooks keep liners securely in place under heavy use
• Close-fitting lid helps reduce odour escape in enclosed spaces
• Polypropylene body is robust and easy to wipe down between uses

This is a freestanding unit with no installation requirements. At 4.4kg it is light enough to reposition as needed, though at this size it will occupy a reasonable footprint and should be sited clear of main kitchen traffic routes. It is not suitable for outdoor use or areas exposed to sustained direct heat.

Well suited to mid-size to larger kitchens where a high-capacity bin is needed at a single waste point. Smaller operations, or those equipping multiple stations, may find a smaller capacity more practical; very high-throughput sites should consider whether a single unit is sufficient or whether additional bins better serve the workflow.

If you are working through waste management requirements for a kitchen fit-out or refurbishment, we are happy to help you work out what will suit the space.
