Product Description
This is a large-capacity, foot-operated waste bin constructed from polypropylene and finished in black. The pedal mechanism opens the lid without any hand contact, which makes it a practical choice for food preparation areas where cross-contamination controls are part of daily hygiene practice. The lid closes firmly after each use, helping to contain odours and limit the spread of airborne contamination during busy service periods.
At 87 litres, this bin is well suited to kitchens and back-of-house areas where waste accumulates quickly and frequent liner changes would disrupt workflow. Polypropylene is a sensible material choice for this kind of environment — it resists knocks, cleans down easily at the end of service, and holds up to the pace of a working kitchen without cracking or deforming. The black finish is practical in its own right, concealing the scuffs and marks that are unavoidable in daily use.
- Hands-free pedal operation supports hygiene controls in food prep areas
- Tight-fitting lid contains odours throughout the service period
- Large capacity reduces liner changes during busy shifts
- Polypropylene construction wipes down quickly at end of service
- Robust enough to withstand daily knocks in a working kitchen
It is worth noting that at this size the bin is bulky when full, so placement near a clear route to the waste collection point matters. This bin is intended for general or dry waste streams — it is not designed as a dedicated food waste caddy or recycling station, though liner use can adapt it to most waste types.
This bin works well in commercial kitchens, prep areas, pot wash areas, and washrooms where high waste volumes and hygiene compliance are both priorities. Smaller options are available if space is more limited or waste volumes are lower.
If you are reviewing your waste setup across a site and want a steer on sizes and quantities that match your service volume, we are happy to help you think it through.

Frequently Asked Questions
- At 87 litres it is well suited to most mid-sized commercial kitchens, busy prep areas, and high-traffic washrooms where waste builds up quickly during service. For very high-volume operations or areas generating significant packaging waste, it is worth considering whether multiple units or a larger solution would reduce the frequency of liner changes during peak periods.
- This bin is designed for general or dry waste streams and works well with standard liner bags. It is not purpose-built as a food waste caddy — food waste applications typically call for a dedicated sealed container with specific hygiene characteristics — but liner use can adapt it to most non-specialist waste types.
- At this capacity the bin becomes heavy and bulky when full, so placement near a clear, unobstructed route to your waste collection point will make a practical difference to daily operations. Allow enough floor space for the lid to open fully without obstruction, and ensure the location does not create a slip or trip risk in a high-traffic area.
