This state-of-the-art design features an unusual yet highly tactile opening mechanism. The all-metal lid slides in, upwards and back with a simple one-handed movement, revealing a wide opening and capacious 45 litre storage space.

This makes it easy and hygienic to dispose of kitchen waste - even when emptying large plates - and reduces the chance of touching the bin’s contents.

With its patented lid construction and dampened hinge system, the lid opens smoothly and closes silently, and can also be kept in the open position when needed.

Both stylish and practical, the all metal Slide Bin features Brabantia’s tried and tested Fingerprint Proof coating to keep those annoying marks and stains at bay, and your bin looking like new.

It’s also very easy to empty and clean, thanks to its separate, removable plastic inner bucket, detachable lid unit and perfect fitting Brabantia bin liners (code L); these come with a tie tape to ensure no unsightly over hang when in place, and prevent spillage when full and being removed.

Solidly made from corrosion resistant materials, the new Slide Bin is a neat, simple yet durable waste storage solution, and the first of a new generation of waste management products from Brabantia.

Protected by a 10-year guarantee, the Slide Bin retails at around £160.
