Functional living is at its best when you can make the most of the space you have, utilising smart storage solutions without compromising on design. One of the most important things to consider in this regard is how you can maximise bin storage.

The strong plastic lid can also double as a shelf for storing liners or cleaning suppliers and will cover the bins when the door is closed. Hailo bins offer outstanding quality, helping ensure your kitchen stays clean and looking its best for years to come. Their diverse product range includes options for pull-out doors, hinged doors and under-sink cabinets. Whether you’re after a classic stainless steel bin or a vibrant red bin, our extensive range is sure to meet your requirements. Pan drawers are yet another useful storage solution as they are often the most practical way to store your pots and pans. We only sell top quality products and our in-cupboard bins from manufacturers such as Vauth-Sagel, Ninka and Hailo are all expertly engineered using the best materials to give you fantastic and long-lasting functionality.The steel lid is strong enough to act as a shelf for liners etc. and covers the bins when the cabinet is closed, and is also removable for cleaning. Under-cabinet lighting looks especially appealing, bringing a warm glow and brightness to even the darkest corners. It also illuminates countertops more effectively than general overhead lighting, so you can more comfortably prepare and cut food or perform other tasks. This relationship to sleek steel and aluminium chef’s kitchens informs the design of the Tecnoinox bins, which are unique in featuring inner bin containers made from aluminium for durability and structural stability in use. The kitchen has several purposes, often making it the heart or central hub of the household. We cook, clean, socialise, work and store waste here, and because the kitchen caters to so many everyday needs, it must be functional and as easy as possible to keep clean, hygienic and looking great.

The bin comes with a strong steel lid that is fixed within the cabinet and provides a useful shelf for liners etc.

Kitting your kitchen out in efficient, energy-saving appliances also helps future-proof your home and makes sure functionality remains a top priority.

For ultimate convenience add a Hailo Libero Electronic Door Opener which provides automatic door opening just by placing your foot under the sensor. Great for handle-less kitchen cabinets. All metal and plastic parts are slate grey, matched to give a sleek overall look. The cabinet-wide lid is topped by an anti-slip rubber mat, and as the lid slides out independently of the bins it can be pulled out for easy access to liners, cleaning materials and other items you may want to store on top.
