Compact Sanitary Bin – 28 Litre Capacity – Foot Pedal Functionality
Estimated Delivery Time: 6-7 weeks
This Wybone Compact Sanitary Bin, with a 28-litre capacity, is crafted for the efficient collection of feminine hygiene products. Constructed from durable galvanized steel, it ensures long-lasting performance. The unit features a silver ion powder coating with an antimicrobial finish, promoting cleanliness and reducing bacterial spread, providing users with confidence in manual operation.
The bin offers dual operation methods; a seamless 'lip' design allows users to lift the lid manually for waste disposal, while the foot pedal enables hands-free operation, lifting the chute for sanitary waste placement.
The modesty chute design ensures discreet disposal of feminine waste, keeping contents hidden and secure. For emptying, the chute-lid fully reclines, allowing easy access for waste removal.
What items are suitable for the Sanitary Bin?
The Compact Sanitary Bin is intended for the hygienic disposal of sanitary towels, tampons, feminine wipes, incontinence products, and nappies.
Ideal Locations for the Compact Sanitary Bin
The Wybone Sanitary Bin collection is ideal for hospitals, GP offices, dental clinics, businesses, educational institutions, hotels, public restrooms, and workplaces.
The collection includes two compact units, standard 28-litre and 42-litre options, and large 80-litre bins for nappies and changing areas. We suggest compact units for toilet proximity and 42-litre bins for larger washrooms. The 80-litre bins are suited for changing rooms, nappy disposal, and high-use areas like nursing homes.
Legal Considerations for Sanitary Bins
The Environmental Protection Act 1990 (Section 34) mandates responsible handling of sanitary waste from storage to disposal. The Water Industries Act 1991 prohibits flushing sanitary waste to prevent blockages. Duty of Care Regulations 1991 require appropriate sanitary waste disposal in businesses, public areas, and workplaces with female presence.
The sanitary bins feature a yellow lid for clinical waste, suitable for heat treatment. For a stylish washroom addition, bins can be powder coated in colors like silver, black, white, and grey.
An optional soft-closing lid is available for all foot pedal models, ensuring quiet and gentle closure.
This range of Sanitary Bins is compatible with standard sacks and meets HTM05-03 fire resistance standards.
