Product Information

Full details

The Slingsby Pedal Operated Steel Fire Retardant Sack Holder (410368) is an essential waste management solution designed for healthcare professionals, facility managers, and hygiene-conscious environments. Its primary benefit is the combination of hands-free operation and fire-retardant construction, which significantly improves safety and infection control in medical settings. A notable caveat for prospective users is that its professional design and rigid metal construction make it better suited for institutional use rather than residential kitchen spaces.

FAQs

Is this bin suitable for clinical waste?

Yes, it is designed for healthcare environments and conforms to HTM 05-03 fire safety regulations, making it appropriate for clinical settings.

How do I clean the anti-microbial finish?

Use a damp, soft cloth with a mild disinfectant. Do not use industrial solvents or harsh scouring pads, as these can damage the protective finish.

Does this unit come with bin liners?

Liners are not included. The bin is compatible with standard 42-litre capacity bags, but ensure they are sized correctly to sit firmly within the frame.

Can the leakproof tray be removed?

Yes, the tray is designed to be accessible so that it can be easily removed, emptied, and sanitized as part of your regular cleaning routine.

Is the bin fireproof?

It is fire retardant, meaning it is constructed to resist ignition and prevent the spread of fire in accordance with healthcare safety standards.

What are the dimensions of the bin?

The dimensions are 570mm in height, 426mm in width, and 375mm in depth.

Troubleshooting

Lid does not open fully when pedal is pressed

Check if the pedal linkage is obstructed by debris or if the bag is interfering with the lid hinge.

Lid slams shut too loudly

Verify that the lid is correctly aligned on its hinges and that there is no tension buildup in the pedal cable.

Floor is marked or scratched

Inspect the base of the unit to ensure the metal edges are not damaged and consider placing the bin on a rubber mat if flooring is sensitive.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Complies with rigorous HTM 05-03 fire safety standards
  • Foot-pedal operation ensures touchless, hygienic use
  • Corrosion-resistant steel build provides long-lasting durability
  • Anti-microbial finish actively inhibits bacterial growth

Cons

  • Heavier than plastic alternatives due to steel construction

  • Fixed capacity may be insufficient for extremely high-volume waste areas

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up the unit, simply place it on a level, dry surface. Ensure the pedal is clear of obstructions for smooth operation. When installing a liner, ensure it is properly tucked to allow the lid to close securely.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: Wipe the exterior regularly with a damp cloth and a mild detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaners that might degrade the anti-microbial coating.
  • Maintenance: Check the hinge and pedal fixings periodically to ensure they remain secure.
  • Tray Maintenance: Remove and clean the bottom leakproof tray during scheduled bin cleaning cycles to prevent odor buildup and maintain a hygienic environment.
