Features / Specifications

Modus™ is a high capacity bin housing, which securely contains a wheeled bin in a tidy manner. Modus™ 1280 Food Waste Recycling Housing features a secure chute to prevent odours escaping the unit.

Covering large wheeled bins with a Modus™ Housing increases recycling rates and improves the appearance of the area. The Modus™ range of housings accepts a wide range of standard-sized 4-wheeled containers. Modus 770 is designed to accept 600, 660 or 770-litre containers, while Modus 1280 will hold either 1100 or 1280-litre containers.

A hooded peak helps to protect the aperture from the elements. The Vandalex™ frame provides exceptional strength and weather resistance. The Modus Housing features a base skirting to keep pests out and conceal the door wheel, which is adjustable to ensure easy opening of the housing. A stainless steel hinge provides strength and security.

Modus Housing features Ecoboard™ panels, an extremely strong, 100% recycled material made from recycled wheelie bins and polyethylene carrier bags. The material will not chip or rust, is easy to wipe clean and never needs painting.

We recommend that a risk assessment is undertaken to identify an appropriate location for your waste collection and recycling units. In order to reduce risk, some organisations decide to place the units a minimum of 5 metres away from buildings. Any potential risk can be further reduced by maintaining a regime of regularly emptying the unit. You may also wish to consider installing a Glasdon FireSafe.
