Pressbin

Bin with compression system

Solution

Pressbin is a mechanical compression bin designed to increase waste capacity up to 600%. It rethinks how paper towel waste is handled in high-traffic washrooms by focusing on robustness, simplicity, and long-term reliability.

No electronics. Minimal maintenance.
Electronics require batteries and once those fail, the product fails. The bin was intentionally designed as a standalone mechanical product that always works, without charging, replacing batteries, or relying on sensors.

How It Opens

When you press the foot pedal, the bin tilts forward, creating a gap for disposal. When you release the pedal, the bin closes and compresses the waste without the user noticing.

Compression System

Inside the bin, there’s a compression plate. As the bin closes, the plate moves downward, pressing the waste. Every opening and closing cycle compresses the waste again.

Sustainability

When opened, you’ll see the cardboard container inside. By using cardboard instead of plastic bags, the bin reduces plastic waste and allows for easier recycling, contributing to a more sustainable waste cycle. Thanks to the compression, containers also need to be replaced less frequently, reducing material use and servicing.
