Price Match

This is a 50-litre swing-lid bin from SYR, made from polypropylene and supplied in red for colour-coded waste segregation. The swing lid allows hands-free disposal, which is a practical consideration in busy prep and service areas where cross-contamination control matters.

In a working kitchen environment, colour-coded waste bins are a straightforward way to support HACCP compliance and keep waste streams separated without relying on staff to make decisions under pressure. Red is commonly used to distinguish one waste category from another — whether that is general waste, specific food types, or non-recyclable material — depending on the system your site operates.

Practical points worth noting:

  • Lightweight polypropylene construction makes it easy to handle and empty
  • Smooth internal surfaces clean down quickly with standard kitchen cleaning products
  • Swing lid supports hands-free use in busy prep areas
  • Colour coding aids waste segregation without additional labelling
  • Suitable for floor placement in kitchens, back-of-house areas, and service corridors

At 50 litres, this bin suits moderate-volume waste points. For higher-output kitchens or locations where bins fill quickly during service, a larger capacity option may reduce how often staff need to empty and reline. Equally, for tighter spaces or under-counter positions, a smaller bin may be more practical.

If you are specifying bins across a kitchen and need guidance on capacities or colour-coding systems, the team is happy to help you work through the right combination for your site.

Frequently asked questions

Is a 50-litre bin the right size for a commercial kitchen?

It depends on the volume of waste generated and how frequently bins are emptied. A 50-litre bin suits moderate waste points such as a single prep station or a back-of-house corridor. For high-output areas or sites where bins need to last through a full service without emptying, a larger capacity bin may be more practical.

What does the red colour coding indicate?

Colour coding is not universally standardised — the meaning of red will depend on the waste segregation system your site operates. Many kitchens use red to denote general waste or a specific food waste category. It is worth aligning bin colours with your existing colour-coded system and any local authority or environmental health requirements.

Can these bins be used outside of kitchen areas?

Yes — polypropylene swing bins are commonly used in back-of-house corridors, wash-up areas, and front-of-house service points as well as kitchen prep areas. They are not designed for outdoor use or for storing liquids, but they are well suited to most indoor catering and hospitality environments.
