FORCAR AV4661 Stainless Steel Round Pedal Bin

A pedal-operated waste container keeps hands free while food waste and packaging are dropped into the inner basket. The lid opens smoothly when the foot pedal is pressed, then closes automatically to contain odours and maintain hygiene in a busy kitchen environment.

The pedal mechanism connects to the lid via a sturdy linkage, lifting it clear of the rim so that waste falls directly into the inner metal basket. This basket can be removed for emptying and cleaning, preventing the outer container from becoming soiled and reducing the frequency of deep cleaning required.

The unit is constructed from stainless steel, which resists corrosion and staining from kitchen waste and cleaning chemicals. The round shape allows it to fit into corners or against walls without sharp edges that could snag clothing or equipment. A flat base ensures stability on tiled or uneven floors.

The inner basket is also made of metal, matching the durability of the outer container and supporting the weight of wet or heavy waste without sagging. The pedal itself is positioned at the front of the base, allowing easy access without the need to step around the bin.

The 320 mm diameter footprint determines the floor space the bin occupies, while the 740 mm height allows it to hold a substantial volume of waste without requiring frequent emptying. The height also positions the lid at a comfortable level for most kitchen staff to use without bending.

Cleaning involves removing the inner basket and washing it separately. The outer container can be wiped down with a damp cloth and sanitiser, while the pedal mechanism should be kept free of debris to ensure smooth operation. The stainless steel surface can be polished to maintain its appearance, though it is not required for hygiene.

The catalogue places this model in the waste management section for professional catering equipment, alongside larger bins and recycling units.
