Detailed description
40-Liter 2-Compartment Foot Pedal Waste Bin – Hands-Free Lid Opening
The 40-Liter 2-Compartment Foot Pedal Waste Bin features a foot pedal at the base, allowing the lid to open without hand contact.
This design is suitable for kitchens, restaurants, processing areas, clinics, and places where users often have both hands occupied or need to minimize contact.
The bin has a 40-liter capacity (20 liters per compartment), dimensions 430 x 340 x 480 mm, made of HDPE plastic.
Foot Pedal Enables Quick Operation
The pedal connects to the lid via a lever mechanism. Users press lightly to lift the lid; releasing the pedal causes the lid to close automatically.
This opening method helps maintain hand hygiene, especially important in food processing and medical facilities.
Press firmly but avoid excessive force to ensure long-lasting hinge durability.
Self-Closing Lid Seals Odors
The lid returns to the closed position immediately after releasing the pedal, limiting odor escape and preventing insects.
In kitchen areas, the lid remaining closed between waste disposals significantly reduces odors in enclosed spaces.
Do not place heavy objects on the lid as this may misalign the opening mechanism.
Seamless Body, Easy to Clean
The bin body is made of HDPE plastic with a smooth surface that resists dirt adhesion.
The waste bag can be removed, and the bin washed with water and cleaning solution, then dried before reuse.
It is recommended to clean the pedal and hinge area to prevent dirt buildup that could jam the mechanism.
Colors Support Waste Sorting
The product is available in green-yellow or green-gray, facilitating the distinction of waste categories according to internal regulations.
It is advisable to combine bin colors with labels clearly indicating waste types to avoid staff confusion.
In areas with multiple bins placed side by side, consistent color coding by waste type reduces sorting time.

How to Clean the Plastic Waste Bin
The cleaning process can be performed as follows:
- Empty all waste and remove the waste bag from the bin.
- Remove any remaining debris.
- Wash inside and outside with water.
- Use appropriate cleaning solution when necessary.
- Clean the lid and handle areas.
- Rinse with clean water.
- Allow the bin to dry before installing a new waste bag.
It is recommended to designate a separate cleaning area to collect and properly treat wastewater.
How to Choose the Appropriate Bin Capacity
For foot pedal bins, select a capacity sufficient for one work shift. Overly large bins become heavy when full, making waste bag removal difficult.
When choosing, consider:
- Daily waste volume generated.
- Collection frequency.
- Available space for bin placement.
- Type of waste to be contained.
- Distance to collection point.
- Number of users.
- Waste bag size.
