Modern trash cans for the kitchen - hygienic and comfortable furniture
To improve the performance characteristics of custom-made kitchens, many modifications of bins and sorter have been developed and introduced into production. A rich assortment of these components of the furniture provides increased comfort of the headsets, as well as the ability to solve diverse design tasks. The company Styver-100 with the maximum benefit for customers uses a solid arsenal of technical means for collecting and storing garbage, so that our furniture always meets the highest standards of quality and ergonomics.
In addition to various models of convenient trash cans and containers, reputable European manufacturers produce innovative organizational systems for household supplies and household chemicals. These devices are designed to be integrated into the case of furniture modules, and their presence has a positive effect on the performance characteristics of the headset. It is advisable to comprehensively use both the trash container and the organizer in the same cabinet, rejecting for this purpose a module with a washing center or any other locker.
If earlier it was traditionally thought that the trash bin is a pretty bucket with a hinged lid that fits on the inside of the facade, now you can easily get lost in the models offered by furniture components manufacturers. Today, products from Halio, Kessebohmer, Vibo, Vauth-sagel and Blanco are in high demand.
Styver-100 company uses for the design and production of kitchens sliding, folding, withdrawable, removable and rotating trash cans and containers that are designed for installation in pedestals with different dimensions of the body - from narrow to wide modules. Our use of high-quality models with a well-thought-out design ensures a high degree of hygienic furniture, as well as its convenient operation.
In view of the huge range of systems for collecting and storing debris and regular updating of the model range, it is almost impossible to list all types of devices on the market, so in this article we will limit ourselves to a brief description of the most popular container modifications. The information presented to your attention will help not only to determine the appropriate system, but also allow you to get away from stereotypes of stereotypes that significantly limit the choice. In this case, the final decision on the use of a mechanism is recommended to be taken after consulting with our designer during the measurement process.
Note: Traditionally, it is believed that all types of bins were designed specifically for kitchens, but this is not true. If necessary, we will, without prejudice to aesthetic characteristics and functionality, integrate such a system into office or any other furniture, if circumstances so require.
Retractable waste collection containers
The most popular retractable garbage containers overtook traditional garbage bins with hinged lids, which are mounted on the back of the facade. This is quite an expected result, as roll-out sorter is much more convenient and has a more extensive scope. Depending on the modification and design of the case, they can be integrated into one of the thumbs of the lower base of the headset with a base from 200 to 900 millimeters. Consider in order the available models of retractable containers:
Containers for narrow pedestals
Container for narrow pedestals Retractable garbage containers for narrow pedestals are made on the basis of traditional cargo (bottle). They are suitable for installation in the modules of the lower base with a housing width of 200 to 250 millimeters and have a facade fastening system. Depending on the modification, such buckets are fixed either to the bottom or to the vertical side stand. Higher quality models are equipped with ball guides, and containers are simpler with roller extension mechanisms. Containers for premium class kitchens are additionally equipped with damping devices and closers, thanks to which noiseless sliding along the guides and automatic closing of the door leaf is achieved. Again, depending on the elitism and cost of the model of the retractable container, the material is chosen for the manufacture of the frame of this device. For high-quality systems, durable steel wire with 4-fold chrome-plated coating or stainless steel wire rod is used. The frame of cheaper sorts with roller guides are made of thin wire and have a white coating of powder paint. Baskets can have one or two levels. This indicator depends on the height of the garbage containers and the design of the system itself. Trash cans are usually rectangular in shape and are made of white, gray or black plastic. You can also find in the sale of containers with internal and external finishing of sheet stainless steel. Almost all modifications of retractable sorter have containers with hinged lids, which in turn differ in the method of opening. At the most simple and inexpensive models, the covers are lifted with the help of a conventional rope, one edge of which is tied to the cover, and the other end is “dead” attached to a vertical stand. The tension of the cord during the extension of the frame causes the lids to rise when it sags when the system is pushed in, the containers close. More elite bins are equipped with an automatic mechanism for opening / closing lids.
Retractable bollards with medium hull dimensions
Container for medium thumbs For modules of the lower base with a housing width of 300-500 millimeters, retractable bins with a lower mounting frame are mainly used. These models are suitable for integration into cabinets with hinged facades and have an automatic extension system. Mechanisms of extension of such containers are equipped with reliable ball guides and in most cases have built-in closer with damper. Only devices for economy class kitchens are equipped with inexpensive roller guides, they do not have softening devices, and most of them lack an automatic opening system. The mechanism of extension of such containers for collecting waste functions synchronously with the hinged door. It is a movable lever on hinges, one edge of which is fixed on the inside of the door leaf, and the reverse end is connected to the withdrawable frame. When opening the facade, this device pulls the frame with a bucket out of the case, and when it closes it causes the system to return to its original position. In this case, the opening / closing of the lids occurs synchronously with the advance / retract of the mobile trash can. Some modifications of such systems are additionally equipped with a special foot pedal that provides automatic opening of the facade and, accordingly, the simultaneous extension of the frame.
Such retractable buckets are suitable not only for mounting in linear pedestals with medium dimensions, but also in corner pedestals (Euro-angle) with a washing center. However, given the design and dimensions of the cabinet of such cabinets, there are restrictions on the use of systems for collecting and storing debris. Their integration is advisable only if rational use is found for the rest of the space. The fact is that the retractable container is installed opposite the facade and blocks access deeper into the roomy pedestal, which leads to the emergence of a large “dead” zone. So, it would be logical to add something in the far compartment that will not be extracted often. For example, a stationary filter for water treatment. When it needs to be accessed for maintenance and replacement of cartridges, it will be enough to remove the containers from the sliding frame, and after performing the work, return them to their original place.
Euro-Cargo Systems
The Euro-Cargo S system is a versatile, very convenient mechanism that is suitable for installation in thumbs with a width of 450 and 600 millimeters. This device consists of two plastic containers, fixed inside a metal frame made of sheet steel. This mechanism is equipped with reliable ball guides of full extension with an automatic closer. Thanks to this extension mechanism with a bearing capacity of up to 50 kg, the buckets leave the cabinet smoothly and silently. Depending on the width of the cabinet, in which it is planned to install the Euro-Cargo S system, the volume of each bucket is 19 or 30 liters. The metallic elements of this mechanism are silver, and the plastic elements are light gray. The mechanism provides for the fastening of the facade directly to the frame and the ability to adjust the door leaf in different planes, which ensures smooth gaps between adjacent cabinets. The internal mounting height for Euro-Cargo S class systems is 430 mm and the minimum depth is 405 mm. These retractable bins are great for integration into a linear cabinet with a washing center. In addition to all the above-mentioned elements, the system is equipped with a metal lid, which is permanently fixed inside the case. It not only does not close the containers, but also serves as an additional shelf inside the module for various small items. The Euro-Cargo S system is manufactured by Halio and has a traditional German quality.
Orga-Board Boxes
In addition to the Euro-Cargo system, Halio has developed a functional Orga-Board drawer that has a depth of 420 millimeters and is suitable for integration into a cabinet with a 600 mm case width. The device is equipped with a supporting platform made of durable sheet metal with a silver coating and is additionally equipped with a rubberized anti-slip mat. This mechanism is able to withstand up to 30 kg, which is an excellent characteristic for devices of this type. The height of such a box is 59 millimeters. In addition to the basic model, an improved version of the Orga-Board box is released. This modification is also intended for integration into cabinets with a base of 600 mm, but has a large height (170 mm) and is additionally equipped with two small plastic Kitty containers. The total depth of the system is 195 mm, which makes it possible to operate it in a cabinet with a sink. Compact plastic buckets have a volume of 4 liters each and are equipped with lids. The bearing capacity of the Orga-Board 3101-60 system with full extension guides allows it to withstand loads up to 30 kg.
Rotating trash system with retractable container
It is recommended to install rotating systems for garbage collection and storage in angular pedestals with a trapezoidal hull structure and embedded sink. These are convenient devices that allow you to efficiently use all the available space inside this spacious module. It is this mechanism that is able to ensure the highest possible loading of such pedestals and the highest degree of comfort. Rotating systems with retractable containers have a cylindrical shape with a radius of 700-750 mm. Depending on the modification, they are suitable for integration into cabinets (900x900 mm) with a facade width of 350-450 mm, and due to the height restriction (on average 330-350 mm) they fit perfectly in the housing under the sink bowl. Office for the collection and storage of waste from such systems can be equipped with one, two and three buckets, which are easily removed from the retractable frame. Such sorters have, as a basis, a rotating disk on which the rest of the system is fixed, assembled according to the principle of a children's designer. Similar systems with a solid molded plastic case are also found. Retractable frame with trash containers equipped with telescopic guides. For elite devices, the equipment is provided with dampers and closers to stabilize and soften the course. The side compartments of the rotating system have the shape of a segment of a circle and are separate capacious pockets. They are great for storing household chemicals and other supplies to maintain cleanliness and order in the kitchen.
Rotating sorters are not necessarily made of plastic. It can also be combined structures that are made on the base of a steel wire frame with electroplated coating. However, the principle of operation of these systems remains unchanged - the central zone is allocated under a rectangular compartment with pull-out containers, and the side sections are used for storing various kitchen utensils. By rotating around the central axis, the sorter is rotated by the desired compartment to the doorway. Everything is simple, convenient and rational.
System of the organization and sorting of garbage for drawers
Container for medium thumbsThe engineers of the German company Halio are ordinary people and use kitchen furniture in their everyday life. It has occurred to some of these guys that it is best to use the top drawer of one of the pedestals for collecting and storing debris, and this is more convenient than placing containers in the lower compartments of the lockers. He managed to convince the authorities, and the company began producing a separate series of systems for organizing and sorting garbage for drawers.
This organizer is a few containers that are built into the general framework. This design allows you to separately contain dry garbage and food waste, while leaving space for the storage of other kitchen utensils and household chemicals. Containers for garbage are equipped with hinged lids, and all other containers for more convenient operation are left open. This organizer is even suitable for storing powders and other detergents. Depending on the dimensions of the boxes into which the system is to be installed, the number of individual sections is from 2 to 8 pieces. Containers for the content of kitchen utensils are represented by two types of bowls: solid and lattice.
The organization system for collecting and sorting Halio garbage can be integrated into bollards with a base of 300; 450; 500; 600; 800 and 900 millimeters. The height of the installation is 320 mm, and the useful depth of the box must be at least 435 mm. Blum Tandembox, Hettich InnoTech and GRASS extension systems are suitable for mounting this kitchen fixture. Accordingly, all these guides can be equipped with damping devices, rear locking, as well as an automatic opening mechanism, which makes the operation of the organizer even more convenient.
All the buckets with which Halio organizers are equipped are made of practical gray plastic. They are easily removed from the drawer and simply cleaned with traditional detergents. Depending on the type of system, it is equipped with a different number of containers for 18, 12 and 4 liters, which makes it possible to conveniently sort garbage and other kitchen utensils.
Folding Bins
Depending on the model and manufacturer, folding bins are installed in the bottom base cabinets with a facade width of 350-450 mm. Such a container is usually made of plastic and has a rectangular shape, it is additionally equipped with a mounting frame and a special system that provides a folding opening of the facades. Some of these containers for garbage collection are equipped with hinged lids. More expensive and elite modifications have a stable support, and models of the middle price category are equipped with a simpler fixation system, but it rarely gives malfunctions.
In principle, this is a pretty good bucket for collecting garbage, so it is convenient to use. However, integrating such containers into cabinets with standard dimensions is not the most rational solution. Since the tank itself has a depth of 300 to 350 millimeters, it is recommended to use it in modules with narrow sidewalls. Such parameters are found in some cabinets, which are equipped with L-shaped kitchens for small apartments. When designing such typefaces, a short row of thumbs of the lower base is usually covered with a table top trimmed to 400-450 mm. Accordingly, the useful depth of the lockers under it is 300-350 mm. It is recommended to integrate a folding trash bin into one of the constituent elements of this series.
Buckets for tapping into the worktop
Bucket for tapping into the worktopRecently, the popularity of another convenient and interesting model - a bucket for garbage, built into the countertop. Such a container can be integrated into any convenient area of the working surface of the headset, and most often it is embedded in the immediate vicinity of the washing center. These buckets simplify the cooking process and reduce the time it takes to clean up the kitchen. They occupy only the upper compartment of a small cabinet, reserved for the insertion of such a container, allowing the lower zone of the housing to be used for other purposes.
Mortise waste bins are suitable for integration into all types of tabletops: from natural and artificial stone, wood and postforming. They are equipped with a convenient hermetic stainless steel lid and a special sealing ring that retains odors inside the container. Some buckets for tapping into the tabletop are equipped with special windows built in the lid or garbage shredders, which makes their operation even more convenient, since in this case the bucket opens mostly only when taking out the garbage.
5 buckets are on sale; 7 and 11 liters with a round or rectangular lid shape that allows you to choose a model that meets the everyday needs of each customer. These containers go well with polished stainless steel sinks, and also look good next to artificial stone sinks. The main advantages of these models are increasing the overall level of furniture comfort and improving the aesthetic characteristics of the kitchen.
Pivoting bins
Swing-out bucketsFor those who make high demands on the level of comfort of kitchen furniture, we can recommend tilt-and-pull systems for collecting and storing debris. This mechanism provides not only an absolutely full extension of the containers from the cabinet body, but also their turn by 80 degrees. Due to this plastic containers are in the zone of maximum availability. Moreover, the angle of rotation is not a fixed value - the base with containers deviates exactly as much as is required for more convenient loading of garbage or the removal of buckets from the frame.
Swing-out system for separate storage of garbage is designed for installation in pedestals with a base of 450 mm. The device is attached by means of a mobile side frame to one of the vertical side stack of the module. The pull-out mechanism of this system is equipped with a softening damper and closer, thanks to which the facade independently occupies the initial position. Reliable frame and durable frame able to withstand a load of at least 25 kg, which is enough to fully meet the household needs of the average family.
Eco Center VAUTH-SAGEL
The eco center from the company VAUTH-SAGEL is mainly used in pedestals with a washing center. The system is suitable for integration in both linear and angular (Euro-angle) modules, and this device is suitable for facades with either side of the opening. Eco center has a carrying capacity of up to 50 kg per container and up to 5 kg on a convenient lid that has niches for household supplies. Depending on the dimensions of the hull and door leaf, as well as domestic needs, this system for collecting and storing garbage is completed with 1, 2, 3 and 4 containers, the volume of which varies from 18 to 39 liters each. The buckets are in single; two- or three-section frame made of steel wire with electroplated coating. The minimum installation depth of the eco center is 500 mm, which perfectly allows installation under the sink sink.
Buckets on the inside of the facade
Roll-out buckets with fasteners on the inside of the facade or side rack for a long time remained out of competition. However, today they are actively replacing modern functional mechanisms capable of providing a higher level of comfort. Fewer customers choose such modifications, and their principle of operation is well known to everyone: the bucket leaves the case together with the opening door, and at the same time the lid rises. Do not once again describe what everyone knows so well. It is better to spend this time on one interesting inexpensive model that is perfect for equipping economy class kitchens.
This is a compact flat container that has a truncated shape. The inner side of this model has a flat surface, and the outer, like a traditional bucket, has a cylindrical one. The lid of such a container is attached to the inside of the door leaf and has special brackets on which the bucket is put on. To remove the container from the mounting plate or put it back on, it takes a maximum of 2-3 seconds. To lift the lid, a cord tied to it is used, fixed with the other end on the side stand. The design is very compact, simple and efficient. Great for installation in a cabinet under the sink.
Conclusion
To make the kitchen more convenient, more ergonomic and more functional, it is recommended to allocate a whole cabinet for household needs, including collection and debris. In addition to the container for collecting and storing garbage, it is better to additionally equip the module with special organizers that will increase the capacity of the case and shorten the time for searching, retrieving and storing household supplies and household chemicals. We mentioned these systems at the very beginning of the article, and the following review will be devoted to them. Read our materials - it is interesting and informative for those who are going to order furniture in the foreseeable future.
