Big Bin Overground Container

Big bin Overground Container is an innovative urban waste management solution designed to humanize city environments through its sophisticated and user-friendly design approach. This large-capacity container, capable of holding 3200 liters of waste, represents a significant advancement in municipal waste collection infrastructure, featuring a dual compound resistant belt and a streamlined body that harmoniously combines aesthetic appeal with robust functionality. Distinguished by its gentle, rounded forms and clean lines, the container is crafted to integrate seamlessly into various urban settings, from city centers to residential areas and parks, while promoting selective waste collection among citizens. The design employs high-quality polyethylene manufactured through rotational molding, a process that ensures exceptional durability, noise reduction, and superior shock absorption capabilities even in low-temperature conditions. Its dimensions of 1508mm width, 1750mm depth, and 1700mm height are optimized for side-loading garbage truck operations, enabling efficient single-operator collection. The container's innovative design, which earned it the Platinum A' Design Award in the Street and City Furniture Design category, represents a paradigm shift in urban waste management by incorporating domestic aesthetic elements that foster user empathy and encourage responsible waste disposal practices. Compliant with UNE-EN European Standards for side-loading containers, this design exemplifies how thoughtful industrial design can transform utilitarian objects into elements that enhance urban landscapes while promoting environmental consciousness and sustainable waste management practices.
