This model features a modular configuration designed to facilitate efficient waste management, housing four individual internal containers with a capacity of 54 liters each. This substantial total volume makes it an ideal solution for areas requiring high-capacity waste collection.

The juxtaposition of cold, durable metal profiles and the warmth of organic wood creates a refined appearance that elevates the standards of public furniture.
