What is Plastisol?
For both strength and durability, the body of this unit has been manufactured from plastisol. Plastisol is a material with a steel core that is coated in ABS plastic, which has the effect of retaining the steel's robust nature while eliminating the risk of rust and corrosion. This has the effect of extending the longevity of the unit, while making it suitable for moisture-rich environments such as wet rooms and lavatories.

As it has been designed with hygiene maintenance in mind, this bin is suitable for use in virtually any room, including those with the strictest infection control requirements, such as operating theatres. The bin is also ideal for areas with high turnover of employees, customers and clients, such as waiting rooms or lavatories. As the base is made with ABS plastic, it is 100% corrosion resistant and ideal for wet room use.
What Addable Extras Are Available?
