The Altus Recycling Bin, model 15.552.7, is a sophisticated solution for modern waste management, meticulously designed by Iwona Żaczek to integrate seamlessly into diverse urban furniture landscapes. Combining minimalist aesthetics with robust engineering, this multi-compartment unit offers a practical approach to waste segregation in public spaces. Measuring 190 cm in width, 102 cm in height, and 38 cm in depth, its slender profile allows for placement in high-traffic pedestrian areas, parks, or corporate plazas without compromising spatial flow. The structural integrity of this piece of street furniture is ensured by a base frame available in durable carbon steel (S235JR) or high-grade stainless steel (AISI 304), providing long-term resistance to environmental stressors.
Functionality is at the core of the Altus series, which features five individual galvanized steel containers, each offering a capacity of 54 liters. This layout facilitates efficient recycling and waste sorting within a single consolidated unit. The exterior of the recycling bin is defined by its high-quality wooden cladding, available in a variety of premium options including European soft wood, European hardwood, and various oil-finished or exotic hard woods. This use of natural materials softens the industrial appearance of the metal frame, allowing the product to harmonize with natural surroundings or architectural elements. The unit is designed for secure installation, featuring a dedicated system for mounting to the foundation via bolts, ensuring stability and safety in all public settings.
As a key component of the ZANO street furniture collection, the Altus recycling station is engineered to meet the rigorous demands of municipal and private development projects. The absence of an integrated ashtray ensures a clean, streamlined design focused entirely on efficient waste collection. By utilizing high-quality materials and precise craftsmanship, this trash bin maintains its aesthetic and structural performance over many years of intensive use. Whether installed in contemporary city centers or tranquil landscape projects, the Altus Recycling Bin stands as a testament to functional design, offering a durable and visually appealing solution for environmental cleanliness and waste management in the public realm.
