Product code: BASTEK
A square steel and timber waste bin with a lockable door – the timber slats add warmth, the steel frame adds strength.
In green areas an all-metal waste bin can look too cold, and an all-wooden one too fragile. BASTEK combines both materials: a steel frame made of 1.5 and 3 mm sheet carries the structure, while the sides are clad in impregnated and painted softwood. Inside is a 70 l galvanised sheet steel bucket, accessed through a lockable door.

Parks and public squares, forest park paths, rest areas, homesteads and rural tourism farmsteads, campsites, botanical gardens. The combination of timber and metal also looks good next to wooden houses, saunas and terraces.
Every few years it is worth repainting the timber slats with outdoor wood paint – this way they will keep their colour for longer. If you want a similar style but a larger bin, take a look at the 80 l IBIS model.
Depending on the model, the waste bin is bolted to the paving with anchors, mounted on a leg or stand, or its support is fixed into the base. Metal bins are lighter than concrete ones, so in public places it is worth fixing them so that wind or passers-by cannot tip them over. Choose anchors according to the base type – paving blocks, concrete or stone paving.
Galvanised and powder-coated steel is well protected against corrosion, and the colour can be chosen to suit the surroundings. Stainless steel is unpainted, keeps its appearance for a long time and suits prestigious and damp locations. In this category you will also find durable plastic models that are lightweight and withstand UV rays and frost.
Yes. Many steel models are powder-coated in the RAL palette, so the colour can be matched to other street furniture or a corporate style. Some models are made in a standard colour – it is stated in the product description. Specify the colour you want when ordering.
Lockable doors protect the inner bucket from unauthorised people, vandals and animals, and only service staff can open them. This is especially useful at bus stops, on streets and in other places left unsupervised at night. You will find whether a model has lockable doors in the product's technical data.
Most models have a removable galvanised sheet bucket – you pull it out, empty it and put it back. Some models have a bag ring instead of a bucket, so you just need to change the bag. This saves service staff time.
Yes, the category includes models with an integrated ashtray, a rain roof or both. An ashtray suits entrances, cafés and smoking areas, while a roof protects the contents from precipitation. For some models the ashtray can be chosen as an option.
The wood finish is made of impregnated and painted softwood or acacia. Clean the surface regularly, and when the coating wears, renew it with protective paint or oil. Washing the metal frame with water and a mild detergent is enough.
